| * a native DOM element from JSNI methods. An <code>Element</code> passed back |
| * into JSNI becomes the original DOM element the <code>Element</code> was |
| * created from, and can be accessed in JavaScript code as expected. This is |

| * {@link com.google.gwt.user.client.DOM} class. |

| * As of GWT 2.6, users should use {@link com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element} |
| * instead. As an exception, some methods still return a <code>Element</code> |
| * object for backwards compatibility (though this will change in a future |
| * release), so overriding them will require returning an <code>Element</code> |
| * object too. |
