		// description:
		//		NodeList instances provide many utilities that reflect
		//		core Dojo APIs for Array iteration and manipulation, DOM
		//		manipulation, and event handling. Instead of needing to dig up
		//		functions in the dojo.* namespace, NodeLists generally make the
		//		full power of Dojo available for DOM manipulation tasks in a
		//		simple, chainable way.
		// example:
		//		create a node list from a node
		//		|	new query.NodeList(dojo.byId("foo"));
		// example:
		//		get a NodeList from a CSS query and iterate on it
		//		|	var l = dojo.query(".thinger");
		//		|	l.forEach(function(node, index, nodeList){
		//		|		console.log(index, node.innerHTML);
		//		|	});
		// example:
		//		use native and Dojo-provided array methods to manipulate a
		//		NodeList without needing to use dojo.* functions explicitly:
		//		|	var l = dojo.query(".thinger");
		//		|	// since NodeLists are real arrays, they have a length
		//		|	// property that is both readable and writable and
		//		|	// push/pop/shift/unshift methods
		//		|	console.log(l.length);
		//		|	l.push(dojo.create("span"));
		//		|
		//		|	// dojo's normalized array methods work too:
		//		|	console.log( l.indexOf(dojo.byId("foo")) );
		//		|	// ...including the special "function as string" shorthand
		//		|	console.log( l.every("item.nodeType == 1") );
		//		|
		//		|	// NodeLists can be [..] indexed, or you can use the at()
		//		|	// function to get specific items wrapped in a new NodeList:
		//		|	var node = l[3]; // the 4th element
		//		|	var newList = l.at(1, 3); // the 2nd and 4th elements
		// example:
		//		the style functions you expect are all there too:
		//		|	// style() as a getter...
		//		|	var borders = dojo.query(".thinger").style("border");
		//		|	// ...and as a setter:
		//		|	dojo.query(".thinger").style("border", "1px solid black");
		//		|	// class manipulation
		//		|	dojo.query("li:nth-child(even)").addClass("even");
		//		|	// even getting the coordinates of all the items
		//		|	var coords = dojo.query(".thinger").coords();
		// example:
		//		DOM manipulation functions from the dojo.* namespace area also available:
		//		|	// remove all of the elements in the list from their
		//		|	// parents (akin to "deleting" them from the document)
		//		|	dojo.query(".thinger").orphan();
		//		|	// place all elements in the list at the front of #foo
		//		|	dojo.query(".thinger").place("foo", "first");
		// example:
		//		Event handling couldn't be easier. `dojo.connect` is mapped in,
		//		and shortcut handlers are provided for most DOM events:
		//		|	// like dojo.connect(), but with implicit scope
		//		|	dojo.query("li").connect("onclick", console, "log");
		//		|
		//		|	// many common event handlers are already available directly:
		//		|	dojo.query("li").onclick(console, "log");
		//		|	var toggleHovered = dojo.hitch(dojo, "toggleClass", "hovered");
		//		|	dojo.query("p")
		//		|		.onmouseenter(toggleHovered)
		//		|		.onmouseleave(toggleHovered);
		// example:
		//		chainability is a key advantage of NodeLists:
		//		|	dojo.query(".thinger")
		//		|		.onclick(function(e){ /* ... */ })
		//		|		.at(1, 3, 8) // get a subset
		//		|			.style("padding", "5px")
		//		|			.forEach(console.log);

		//		- css3: If the browser has a native selector engine with support for CSS3 pseudo
		//		selectors (most modern browsers except IE8), this will be used, otherwise the
		//		full Acme engine will be loaded.

		//		- Or the module id of a selector engine can be used to explicitly choose the selector engine
		//
		//		For example, if you are using CSS3 pseudo selectors in module, you can specify that
		//		you will need support them with:
		//		|	require(["dojo/query!css3"], function(query){
		//		|		query('#t > h3:nth-child(odd)')...
		//
		//		You can also choose the selector engine/load configuration by setting the query-selector:
		//		For example:
		//		|	<script data-dojo-config="query-selector:'css3'" src="dojo.js"></script>
