I think you're mistaking Javascript issues for browser issues... The
language is not to blame. Let's put it in this way: Javascript is a
powerful language that requires more protection from the browser point
of view. So it's not the language the one that must be killed but the
browser... or improve it.
Remember: "With great power comes great responsibility" ;-)

"My thesis is that the security situation with JavaScript is so poor
that the only solution is to kill it. End users have very little in
the way of protection against malicious JavaScript, major web sites
suffer from XSS and CSRF flaws, the language itself allows appalling
security holes, and as data moves to the cloud the 14 year old
JavaScript security sandbox becomes more and more irrelevant."
Thoughts?
