I'm definitely in favor of this <| proposal, btw.

That sort of pattern certainly can be repeated if push comes to shove. But I believe doing so is far inferior to dedicated, first-class syntactical support to make the semantics absolutely unambiguous and un-confusable with anything else.

This makes sense. I just want to make sure that the fundamental capability to subclass built-in objects is available via libraries for text/javascript, with the new syntax offering the more performant option for text/harmony.

I'm pretty sure current `text/javascript` can sub-class safely, as FuseBox (from @fusejs) does with sandboxing natives. It's hacky, and relies on the non-standard __proto__ in most browsers (iframe in others), but it IS possible. Perhaps we should still formalize it, if we think `text/javascript` is gonna be around for a long time in parallel with ES.Next that has something like <|.
