Hi again,

I'm about to propose `Object.methods(obj)` meta-method (or `Object.getMethods(obj)`). Unfortunately naming convention is inconsistent (arrgh!) -- `Object.keys` (hello, Ruby and Prototype.js) vs. Object.getOwnPropertyNames (o_O hello Java), so the method name can be chosen later.

But the idea is to get the properties (or their names) which are methods on the object.

Proposed:

var foo = {
  bar: function () {},
  __proto__: {baz: function () {}}
};

- Object.getMethods(foo) -> {bar: function () {}, baz: function () {}}

- Object.getOwnMethod(foo) -> {bar: function () {}}

- Object.getMethodNames(foo) -> ["bar", "baz"]

- Object.getOwnMethodNames(foo) -> ["bar"]

Of course it can be easily implemented in JS itself just filtering the Object.getMySummerVacationWasLongOwnPropertyNames or Object.keys(...), but directly in the engine it will be more efficient.

Dmitry.
