// What's in an array?

// Here's an array:

var a = [1,2,3,4];

// If we use want only the *own* properties of an array, we can use the
// Object.keys() method to inspect it.

// Another one that seems to work (we get events from Array changes) but my
// reasoning in the comments seems hand-wavingly suspect.

// Method delegation adds more setup time (iterating and so on), another mapping
// dependency, and copying the prototype and setting that as the new prototype

// Still not happy but we have better support across types of objects (only
// element, text, object, and array so far).

// After all that, Object.defineProperty on property names is enough to ensure
// related property updates, e.g., {textContent, nodeValue, data, wholeText}.
