Hi Joey, I'm very glad to see this and I think it should be standardized by TC39. However, it should not be standardized as "part of the language", and so would result in a document distinct from Ecma 262. A good model is the way the internationalization track is proceeding.
Rather than create an entire new track just for source maps, I think this goes hand in hand with the need to standardize a debugging API. I suggest both be bundled into one new track.
