Mark Miller said: We can get the effect of specifying such indistinguishability simply by specifying that host objects may have as their [[Class]] property "Object", or any string not otherwise used by the spec as a [[Class]] value.
I generally agree, but I have two "what about's" that actually go in different directions from each other. #1 What about "Function" in addition to "Object"? It seems reasonable to have host objects that are functions in addition host objects that are objects. (Counter-argument: slippery slope) #2 Why allow "Object" for host objects that are required to conform to the section 15.3 specification for Object. If they are distinguishable from section 15.3 objects they should have [[Class]]=="Object". An implementation can use "HostObject" or something else. (Counter-argument: Might confuse some programmers??? (seems weak)) Allen
