If we want to merge allocation with initialization, then I'm going to

Gotta credt C#'s parents, C++, which would require Point not super.
I think you are really onto something here. We do not want anything
looking like an expression-statement in the constructor body, which
besides being verbose has unwanted degrees of freedom (requiring TDZ for
`this`, running into the dead code problem Jeff cited, etc.).
It sure seems to me that we rather want a special form in the
constructor head. This came up in ES4.
Separately I agree `this = new super(x, y);` is just crazy long and very
likely to be left out in whole or in part (the `new`).
