Yes, that is what I'll do for now, even though ES 3.0 as well as the
3.1 draft say the following in section 2 - Conformance:

"A conforming implementation of ECMAScript is permitted to support
program and regular expression syntax not described in this
specification. In particular, a conforming implementation of
ECMAScript is permitted to support program syntax that makes use of
the “future reserved words” listed in 7.5.3 of this specification."
