The purpose of JS2 is to open the way for more classical OO trained programmers to use javascript, javascript is such a break from the 'norm' that its difficult for people who are expecting classes to create elegant and maintainable code.
The hope is to maintain the prototypal abilties of javascript and also have a class based system aswell, as for how that masochisitc idea will turn out, only time will tel.. Anyway we're straying massivly from the topic. The point goes back to the setStyle being a resource hog. How can this be improved as with the heavy dependance of it in script.aculo.us it is in desperate need of reworking.
