Hi,

A code joke from a colleague [1] revealed [2] that String.prototype.substr is not part of ES5.1 as normative.
Kangax tables indicate that this property is in all modern browsers [3].
I think it'd be worth moving this method to the normative part of the spec and that tests be added to test262 (since tests are on a chapter basis, I assume there is currently none for this method).
