Comment #8 on issue 633 by Bradley.Meck: Implement harmony proxies http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=633
By convenience I meant convenience with the existence of Proxy. There is an added complexity of needing to know the use of an object during compilation / interpretation. Instead of a simple retrieval object calls must all be given an added check if they are about to be used as a function. Perhaps a better explanation of why this is needed above proxies would be helpful.
The arguments given by the mailing list post do present a good use case if Proxies are not present, however, I am having trouble reconciling that extra check for all objects when it can be emulated on a need to know basis.
