This also creates an ever bigger need for an external opt-in flag for modules. E.g. making service workers use strict mode as suggested in https://github.com/slightlyoff/ServiceWorker/issues/294 would no longer allow us to safely upgrade them to module syntax later on. Per https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=25868 it is argued that "use modules" would be bad UX, but that seems to be exactly where this is heading, except the syntax is outside of JavaScript. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
