New issue 4081 by [email protected]: Make [[HomeObject]] a lexically scoped binding?
https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=4081

[[HomeObject]] could be lexically bound now that we removed toMethod in ES6 but
it would require that we add an extra scope around object literals.

Today:

let o = {
  m() { super.toString }
};

becomes something like:

let o = {
m() { LookupSuperProperty(this, %ThisFunction().[[HomeObject]], 'toString') }
};
o.m.[[HomeObject]] = o;

Which we could change to:

let o;
{
  let home_object;
  o = {
    m() { LookupSuperProperty(this, home_object, 'toString') }
  }
  home_object = o;
}

and similarly with classes. Classes are simpler because they already have a scope.

Concerns: toMethod might come back with a vengeance.
