Object.observe isn't simpler than proxies, but the complexity is along somewhat different axes. In any case, WebIDL actually specs attributes as accessor properties, which means that Object.observe simply ignores them. So there isn't much interference between Object.observe and the DOM. /Andreas _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
