A directive would have the same benefits than use strict which is to not
break existing code in platform that do not support this directive.
It would also have the same limitation that "use strict"; does, which is
that it doesn't play well with (the quite common pattern of) concat'ing
minified scripts together in build environment deployments, because your
"use stict" declaration in one of your files bleeds over (probably
unintentionally) to affecting other files when they are all combined into
one file.
Maybe something like:
use "sensible arithmetic" {
// ..
};
Perhaps? In any case, I'm definitely not a fan of continuing the frustration
that "use strict" gives us in concat-js environments.
