We would probably make it a contextual keyword so you could still use it in 
non-expression contexts (e.g., to the right of '.' and left of ':' in object 
literals), but unless we played some clever tricks, which I'm not sure would be 
worth it, using it as an identifier would be a syntax error. Harmony will be 
opt-in, though, so this won't cause existing code to break unless the author 
explicitly changes the language; at which point they would get an early error 
and have the opportunity to rename the identifiers.
