Its a responseText property meaning the byte stream that arrives is 
decoded into text.
XMLHttpRequest in Mozilla does not have a responseStream or responseBody 
property. MSXML has those,

though even there it is difficult to do much with them using 
J(ava)Script (at least not client-side).

In which context are you using XMLHttpRequest in Mozilla? Is that simply 
script in a HTML or XML document loaded from a HTTP web server? I don't 
think you can process any bytes that way.
