For "more adequate than object", I would say that they are not concerned
with pseudo-properties of JS-in-reality (__proto__, __defineGetter__,
...) which may make a difference in traps.

Another idea is to define and expose a specific PropertyDescriptor type
(that will be manipulated by proxy traps). I would prefer that solution
actually, but I'm afraid backward compat may prevent that from happening.
It would be a great occasion to expose a bunch of PropertyDescriptor.*
functions to manipulate them.
For instance, with proxies, I've had to implement some algorithms to
merge descriptors (basically merge what I want to return with
invariant-enforceable parts of the target descriptor) and this code
belongs to the standard library, not application code.
