Uhm, just a couple of extra question about that page if/when you have time:

   1. string and boolean are mentioned, but nowhere in your `struct.js`
   prolyfill code. Will string and boolean be accepted?
   2. `Object` and `Any` are mentioned, but exported as object and any in
   your `struct.js` prolyfill example. W
   3. Which is the right way?

The reason I am asking is to be able to create code that does absolutely
nothing (for performance reason) but will look like the real thing so I can
start experimenting with static structures and possibly a develop VS
production version of an ES3 to ES5 compatible polyfill since I believe
your code won't run anywhere except in SpiderMonkey (which is OK but it's
not suitable for a lightweight migration to "structure like" logic)

Thanks.
