`System.currentModule` requires magic. It would require the engine to know
where the call site was.

We also talked about adding a binding, like NodeJS does but @David Herman
<dher...@mozilla.com> argued that thaw is a non starter.

So, if we don't want to use `this` or introduce a new binding name, or add
more magic, the only thing left seems to be new dedicated syntax. In ES4 we
`this function` which is similar to what @Axel Rauschmayer
<a...@rauschma.de> suggested.
