To first address the particular case of using weak maps for custom event
listeners via iteration:
I think the only relatively sane approach to iterating a WeakMap would be
to force GC whenever the WeakMap is being iterated. This would make sure
that you couldn't get references to items that are
Jussi, one thing about your (totally correct) statements here is that
you're addressing this from the perspective of 'I want to observe GC
reliably from user code'. But that's not really what is desired in
most cases.
For example, forcing a GC whenever iterating the weakmap would ensure
you don't
I largely agree with your arguments, but one point is actually more of a
counter argument to having weakrefs:

Ah, no, you didn't - I misunderstood your argument and did indeed think it
was about caching. I'm still hesitant about this particular argument
because it seems like your framework would still have issues with

it through an explicit `this` keyword will throw a ReferenceError.
This seems overly restrictive to me. The common case (as in ES5) will be
classes that derive from Object, where no such restriction is

Hi,
Will it makes sense to standardize a trailing comma for function arguments, and call parameters?
We have it for Array and Object initialisers, and people like using them for long
