Excellent, great work. From private correspondence with Sencha, it seems they may be able to avoid the problem without too much trouble.

Still, a bitter stab in the back from 'with'! And cautionary for future method additions (not that I propose mangled or unlikely names).

I have a dataset of scripts downloaded from the top 10k websites by traffic

take this information with the appropriate amount of salt.

I searched for occurrences of the identifiers "keys", "values", or "entries" inside with 
statements. Only one site (rank 2243 as of 6 months ago) was found in this query. It contains the identifier 
"keys" in a with statement, but won't be broken as the with object is appears to always be an instance of 
Object not Array.

I also searched for all occurrences of eval inside with statements. 24 sites 
(lowest rank, #19 - ebay.com) matched this query. A random sample of 5 sites 
found that in all cases the with object was instance of Object.

I could dig in more if people are interested. Let me know!

Both bug reports have to do with Sencha Ext JS. I haven't looked closely yet. 
It seems `with(values)` appears in Ext.

Looks like the `with` is responsible. When the "values" there is an array, any reference inside the 
`with` to "values" then becomes "values.values".

Note that they should look after `with(anyArray)` rather than `with(values)`, 
in order to resolve that issue.
