We have had several previous discussions about such possibilities on this list.
Bottom line, is that destructuring (including formal parameters) could be moved towards something that is more like generalized pattern matching. However, it isn't clear that the additional specification, implementation, and usage complexity is justified at this time. For ES6 we have the most important use cases covered. If experience with it suggests that some generalizations would add real value we can consider them for future editions. Allen On Jun 12, 2012, at 9:10 AM, T.J.
