I was thinking about improving debug-ability by adding descriptive
names to function expressions thusly,
var myFun = function "my description here" (...) { ... };
Is this better for your purposes than
var myFun = function (...) { ... };
myFun.prettyName = "my description here";
Just that it's shorter and easier to type. It would be a shorthand
notation for setting the .name property of the function object
created. I wouldn't expect the function to be referenceable by the
name, but I'd want Function.toString to display it (as a string
literal).
