Underscore and lodash already does pretty much of what you will ever want.

I'd say keep the core small and use your _ for whatever's extra util you 
need.

FWIW there is also https://github.com/chakrit/node-uneval so 
`eval(uneval(o))` might work for you (also handles functions).

Of course, all the caveats of eval/evil applies.
