Yes, definitely there are plans. Coincidentally I have been working on this off and on for the last few days. Here is the bug report with the discussion: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742249

In the meantime if you want to use ES6 features I would use jsgtk as a transpiler as Andrea suggests.
