Laszlo's scripting language is ECMAScript (not a proprietary language, as you stated in your original post). The 'deviations' you note are bugs. Bugs don't make a proprietary language. AS2 is based on ECMAScript, but is a proprietary language because it is defined by Macromedia, not by the ECMAScript standard. Perhaps it is a subtle point. As I am sure you are aware, most of the 'deviations' from ECMAScript in Laszlo are due to using the Flash player as the (current) runtime target. (I'm not knocking the Flash player.
