Using value objects would make this explicit, and would allow
convenient operator overloading, so you can do:

var x = CSS.px(5);
var y = CSS.px(10);
var z = x + y;

With value objects, you could do even better:

  // something declarative to import suffix px as CSS.px here

  let x = 5px;
  let y = 10px;
  let z = x + y;

I'm okay with this being 1 or 2 years down the road.

That's my time frame, and ES7's.

Alternately, how close can I get to truly immutable objects?  I want
something that can't be expando'd or altered in any way, so our impl
can share objects when possible.

Without value objects, you have reference-based identity, so

  CSS.px(5) !== CSS.px(5)

No bueno. You want value objects. Working on it for next week's TC39 meeting.
