User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20130709093527 Steps to reproduce: This simple code tries to remove a second listener, attached on the same node to the same event phase: http://jsfiddle.net/ondras/fD9qq/ Actual results: The listener was removed. Expected results: The listener shall not be removed. According to the spec, candidate listeners are unchangeable during their execution on a particular node/object. Note this works for addEventListener (new listener is not executed during this event, as expected).
