Separating out the functionality of abstract names certainly is a good idea.
But is there any reason to make it a method of Object? In essence, private names form a new primitive type, so there should be a separate global object or module for them. Assuming for a minute it was called Name (which clearly is a suboptimal choice), then you'd rather invoke Name.create(), or perhaps simply Name() (by analogy with calling String(v) to create primitive strings, although I'm not sure I like the notational abuse behind it). /Andreas _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
