thanks, a good suggestion. Actually they are quite different. The dict proposal is simply defining one new data types that can be used as a key value store which is guaranteed not to have any pre-existing key conflicts prior to initial use.
My proposal, defines a general extensible mechanism that JS programmers can use to define many kinds of new collection abstractions all of which use a consistent accessing syntax whose semantics is completely under the control of the programmer.
