I thought you'd probably say that, it was just a thought. One thing we could do, is leave constructor writable/configurable, and then add a new private name property [ctor] that is always reliable. This would give people something to work with without really touching prototype.constructor. Of course, that doesn't help David's case. He really would need more of a mirror API to achieve that. - Russ
