I find this whole removal idea a bit lazy. In theory some logic possibly declares some aspects of the BOM/DOM must be JS for introspection reasons, etc, but the reverse can't really be true.. There's nothing that can declare things like XSLT must be more native than a little trick with a otherwise standard JS VM, so the unique security edges of delegating things to a second class backwards support level could be quite small.
