The proposed setup from Allen will start failing the moment ECMAScript wants something more complicated with its loop. At that point you'll have to propose another set of hacks to make the integration with HTML work again. And given this integration is so weird, I doubt implementations will match it as written. Seems more likely they'll implement the more straightforward alternative. (Also, the proposed setup does seem to require exactly that kind of mental integration I was worried about. With HTML hijacking the ES loop to do its bidding.) -- https://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
