In person, I suggested another way of doing this optimization that is better. Make the length function in the base class non-virtual, and have it be an inline that calls a virtual. Then this class can override length.

This pattern is used for EventListener::isAttribute, Node::localName, Node::namespaceURI, Node::prefix, Node::computedStyle, ScriptExecutionContext::url, ScriptExecutionContext::completeURL, and HTMLElement::form.

This eliminates the unpleasant "mutableLength()" name.

r=me if you change that
