Same exact idea as bug 687486.  The spec <http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-eventtarget-dispatchevent> says InvalidStateError here, in contrast to previous specs that say an EventException should be thrown.  At this point, DOM 3 Events agrees with InvalidStateError <http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/DOM-Level-3-Events/html/DOM3-Events.html#events-EventTarget-dispatchEvent>.

Tested by <http://w3c-test.org/webapps/DOMCore/tests/submissions/Ms2ger/EventTarget-dispatchEvent.html>.
