Is there any possibility that some solution at the semantic level could be back-ported to previous versions of the language, such as with the JavaScript 1.6 Array Extras? If so, and if further discussion is just needed by others to finalize a solution, I'm sure that I and others are willing to wait. If not, I think that something - such as the namespace function I proposed - should continue to be considered as an "immediate" solution. -- Mark A.
