Presumably, so that such a namespace can be used with a
property-name-substitution syntax.
A question: is
var symbol = new Symbol.for("abcdefg");
really a symbol? Or is it just a string, masquerading as a symbol?
If we answer that it's just a string, then perhaps instead of extending the
concept of Symbol to include "wrapped" strings, we should extend the
concept of property-name-substitution to include string targets.
