Nice read.

So it seems array.length += foo; is going to end up working somehow.

If it's going to be by property expression rewriting, then I hope you
guys are either OK with waiting for me or are not bothering to wait for me.

I feel kinda bad that I haven't made that patch already.  That and your
final draft deadline is Nov. 9.

I've been distracted by working feverishly to get a game of mine
submitted in the IGF and IGC game competitions, and somehow I need to
get a job too.  When the game is submitted though, property expression
rewriting will take second place only to job search, which means I'll
probably have time for it.

Looks like we get value-type static arrays too.  Awesome.  That's some
sexy code there ;)
