To convert from base64 to ASCII and vice versa, browsers have had global `atob` 
and `btoa` functions for a while now. At the moment, these are defined in the 
HTML standard: http://whatwg.org/html/webappapis.html#atob

However, such utility methods are not only useful in browsers. How about adding 
these as global functions to ECMAScript so that they’re natively available in 
all JavaScript engines, not just in browser environments?
