I didn't see this in the archives but I was curious if any consideration has been given for standardizing on features more commonly found in most other language's standard library.
For example reading and writing to sockets in JavaScript requires platform specific libraries and works very differently between them. The same goes for file io (which would obviously need restrictions when run in, say, a web browser). Building these in would make JavaScript more universal and easier to learn (you learn one way to access a resource instead of 2 or 3 very different ways). I would be happy to work on a proposal for such changes if they were desired by the community. Thoughts? - Kris
