Sounds like a good idea to me.

I created a proof of concept (using String.prototype.trim as an 
example), that should meet the following requirments:
- Useful
- Clean, short, readable
- Tested via automatic test suite
- Well documented

Please have a look at this:
http://joern.jquery.com/stringSandbox/stringTest.html

It uses Stefan's experimental console and logs to the Firebug console, 
if available. I hope someone has an idea (*waves at John*) how this 
could be packaged (with jQuery) and parsed to have the documentation online.

On a side note, I just had a look at Prototype. It's really daunting 
that there is absolutly no documentation available on the official site 
or packaged with the download. Hooray for jQuery!
