Good point. It now says:

# Implementations that do not support scripting (or which have their
# scripting features disabled) are exempt from supporting the events and
# DOM interfaces mentioned in this specification. For the parts of this
# specification that are defined in terms of an events model or in terms
# of the DOM, such user agents must still act as if events and the DOM
# were supported.

Is that better?
