Well, it's not like the language's own object API (a.k.a. proxies) is
any better in that respect...;)
It's still a win to have fewer such mouths to feed, and in particular,
only one such mouth in the spec. I hope you're just reminding that
proxies can be abused to violate invariants that we cannot enforce
(efficiently or at all), not putting proxies into the same low class as
JSC's (or SpiderMonkey's, or any other engine's) old/over-broad
embedding API.
