I don't see the security problem here. If you store arbitrary keys in an
instance of Object you are doing it wrong. Use an hash table for that. {}
is not an hash table. Object.create(null) is more likely, or you just have
to implement it or another data structure that does the job (js is supposed
to be low-level, relatively speaking).
The hypothesis of domenic "You're probably used to stuffing…" doesn't apply
(I hope) to most programmers that use javascript for a living. If it does,
maybe it is better to fix some code before killing features of the language.
