Function constructor is considered as bad practice by many JS gurus,
but sometimes I use Function constructor for shorter scope chain. The
problem in ES5 strict mode come when I want recursive call of
function, which is created by Function constructor. I can not use
`arguments.callee` and Function constructor does not provide way to
create NFE. I would like to see Function constructor, which can
create:
- NamedFunctionExpression
- Setter for [[Scope]] internal property
For example:
var F = Function({
name : 'NFE',
arguments : ['arg1', 'arg2', 'argN'],
scope : {a : 10, b : 20},
body : "print(typeof NFE); print(a + b);"
});
F.length;
-> 3
F();
-> function
-> 30
