I was laughing my ass off for a while, but now I kind of feel bad for
all of the effort wasted on that project. It's dead in the water. Who
would want that much code deployed? Or to use code like:

| Array.prototype._indexOperator$$named_ = function($n, $o, index){
|   var seen = 0;
|   var def = 0;
|   if (seen != $o.count || seen + def + $n != 1)
|     $nsme();
|   return Array.prototype._indexOperator$$member_.call(this, index);
| }
| ;

Dart will appeal to the same crowd GWT appealed to, and for the same
reasons. I can't imagine it gaining wide adoption.
