Going to keep this short and sweet:
- Enumerability? Yawn... Enumerability of user-created meta-level method
names is fine and should be expected, just as we expect enumerability of
"_"-prefixed method names today.
- Duck typing *must* work across Realms. Symbols without a registry do
not. You can make special cases for built-in symbols, but special cases
make bad law.
- If you are going to use a symbol registry, then you really need to prove
how that is any better than just using the registry key itself.
- Is getting a symbol with (1) a GUID and (2) a friendly name, then (3)
toting that object around really more ergonomic than just using a string
literal?
- Perfect (collision avoidance) is the enemy of the good (collision
avoidance).
- Symbols are surprisingly tricky at the spec level. (new Symbol() throws,
what?)
