There's a bunch of tribal knowledge among JS hackers of where we want
the engine to go, but we just haven't quite yet taken it. Sometimes
that info's useful/relevant to design of present-day patches or
approaches. It would be useful to have that documented somewhere so
that people are more on the same page, and don't have to rely on what
luke or jorendorff or I say in passing about where things are headed.
Also sometimes embedders want to have ideas about this stuff (see the
js-engine thread I just sent mail to, for example). So here's the start
of such a document:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/JavaScript:SpiderMonkey:LongTermPlans
Feel free to add other inchoate ideas you have here. I've also linked
it off of https://wiki.mozilla.org/JavaScript:Home_Page for
somewhat-easy discovery.
