I think translators are an established part of TinkerPop at this point. We
have them for Java, Groovy, and Python and I've personally found them to be
insanely useful on so many internal odds/ends. We don't over-publicize them
because we don't want to promote "scripts" but I understand the current need
for CosmosDB.
Anyway, including a Javascript translator is an acceptable addition imo.
