Not necessarily, because the documentation of Ext.onReady says

"Fires when the document is ready (before onload and before images are
loaded)"

*before onload*. Microsoft's documentation does not say when
document.namespaces is ready, but all our OpenLayers examples  use an
init function, which is bound to document.onload, because we know that
document.namespaces is available at the time document.onload is fired.
