With best intentions I must say that you are overreacting. The
subject-line code (h/t Mark Miller for pointing me at it!) in context of
the superclass constructor uses `this` before `super` has returned.
That's a no-no for pretty-good reason.
If you have a better alternative design, we needed it last month. As
things stand, this is a thing to learn, with a workaround. What's the
big deal?

This use-case is a perfect example of something that is EXTREMELY
unexpected which is funny because the changes are supposed to be
supporting subclassing of built-ins.
Very disheartened :(

Hmm I am pretty sure Babel et al. are correct here in not allowing
this. The super call needs to *finish* before you can use `this`.
Chrome also works this way.
The correct workaround is
```js
let resolve, reject;
super((a, b) => {
resolve = a;
reject = b;
});
// use this
```
