I froze my Prototype version just prior to the change to $().
Currently, I need stability and this is too much a change in the
fundamental workings of the library. The last thing I need are nasty
surprises, which there were and might still show up. Therefore, I pass
up on that. Additionally, what good are patches, when even the trivial
ones on Prototype just keep rotting in Trac? Does Sam even care?

The whole $() business is syntactic sugar, this was no pressing issue.
A much better OOP implementation, like described in
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4060 , has much more value, IMHO.
And Sam did not even bother to say one word on this great
contribution.
