+1 Well said.
I know this is a huge generalisation (normally not a good thing), but
most web (JS) developers I have met, most of their day-to-day JavaScript
coding consists of using ready-made frameworks or copying somebody
else's code and use it for their own needs. There actual own-written
JavaScript coding is very small in the grand scheme of things.
And this is why I firmly believe we need more libraries to actually do things,
instead of more changes to the language.
Another language feature is not going to automagically supply us with e.g. a
websockets library.
