I think the problem with these array methods is how we deal with cross browser issues in this case. Usually we provide our own API on top of the browsers (e.g. qx.lang.Array.contains) but in this case we emulate the standard API in a non standard browser by manipulating the prototype. This is not in the spirit of the rest of the framework and leads to the described side effects. For this reason I think it is a very valid discussion even though it has been discussed before.
