FWIW, replacing arguments.callee with named function to make jQuery
cajole was very straightforward.

Before giving callee the boot, has anyone interacted with Ajax

We've completely removed uses of arguments callee from the upcoming
release of Prototype, favoring named functions instead.
Yes, thanks -- I remember you pointed this out previously.
My `find | xargs grep` hit many more callee uses in the other
libraries whose source I track.
Named function expressions and definitions are better, no question
(now that ES3.1 adopts the de-facto fix pioneered by Opera of not
binding a named function expression's name in an Object instance
created as if by "new Object"). I pointed to the numerous uses of
callee to ask whether other Ajax library authors are on board. Many
read this list.
