It was also suggested that we allow iterators/generators to supply the
initialization values to array destructurings. This currently isn't in the
draft spec. and I think it would introduce some fairly significant
specification and practical complications (eg, rest bindings and open-ended
generators).
However, the reason I bring it up it that if we ever do want to add that sort
of generative initialization value feature, it would seem to have significant
interactions with the explicit array property designator feature shown above.
The most future proof thing for right now would be to do neither.
