@arian:
There's jut a few things I see.
1. You're still using the "is" word; I have no idea if this is going
to piss off IE. I'll test it Monday.
2. There's no way to so {im:'object'}.is('object');
So you would have to extend Object, and when you do that, there's no
reason to extend all the other Natives, cause it's the parent Object.
so the following should take care of it all (if we're using is):
Object.prototype.is = function(type){
return typeOf(this)==type;
}
