I believe others don't feel that way. I'm interested in 4 at most, since we haven't come up with a way to do 2 and 5 that works, and object literals *do not* count as "sugar" for the constructor/prototype pattern. You need a bunch of manual nesting and assigning, even if we add |super| as Allen has spec'ed. /be _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
