What is the issue with the Web IDL Standard?

Is there anywhere that explains why callbacks aren't allowed in namespaces? Would like to file a bug asking for it, but first want to make sure it isn't already explained why it is that way.

Callbacks don't correspond to JavaScript objects; they're helpers for making it easier for web specifications to call web developer code.

As such putting them in namespaces makes no sense, because there'd be no namespaceObject.callbackObject, since there is no callbackObject.

Hope this helps!
