It's not clear what will be left of Prototype if it was to change its
core way of doing things - extending objects, both native and host
ones. While host objects extensions can be changed in favor of
wrappers (without much breakage), preventing native object extensions
would practically eliminate most of Prototype's charm (charm that is
very attractive in some environments, yet poisonous in others - as you
can see with Bespin not being able to provide ease of extensibility
and collaboration).
