Interesting! Thanks for sharing, Olaf. As I understand it, Adobe tried to
be very conservative about what they put into AS3 because they wanted to
avoid adding things that didn't end up in the final approved version of
ES4. I think I heard that there were already some differences, and they
didn't want it to go any further, if they could help it. I guess they
decided to be careful about this one.

This is a cool discovery, like a little time capsule. It makes me happy
that my assignment syntax is the same. I considered using "as" instead, but
assignment felt better.
