Define "eventually". We can't remove 'with' from ES5 + reality JS on any definite schedule. "Developers" are not a unitary audience with the same time horizons. Much JS on the web is unmaintained. It may or may not replaced for years or decades. This is all kind of beside the point. We cannot remove 'with' or ASI from ES5 + reality, not-opted-into-Harmony JS as specified by ECMA-262 in any edition in sight. Let's rediscuss when we can. Until then it's a waste of time. This is not to say it can't or won't happen. It may but it could take longer than you care to wait. /be _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
