Hidden Prototype Goodness

Well, not really hidden. You just have to look hard. The new DOM Builder addition got me looking at the branches in the source tree. These function prototype extensions are absolutely awesome, I hardily hope they make it into the core at some point. There is also a port of Ben Nolan's Behaviour library that seems totally ready.

The core team seems fairly conservative about what goes into a new release. I'm not all for throwing in the kitchen, sink, but there are a limited number of additional things that I find myself wanting, and most of them are present in various patches by now.

Maybe I should change the name of Prototype.Tidbits to Prototype.Liberal and incorporate a few of the unused patches.
