Grumble. How about applying the web reality proposal only to old-style
regex, not when /u is set or implied?

I'd support that. See my recent email along similar lines, where I suggested using /u as an opportunity to discuss all of ES's RegExp warts. Limiting this to not applying web reality would be a reasonable compromise that would at least allow for future letter escapes and finally kill RegExp octals (which overlap with backreferences, among other problems).
