Sorry, but this argument just does NOT count (for me). It's leads to the question: Why develop something new?
The is no language, which can to everything to the utmost satisfaction of every programmer. This will NOT happen.
In contrast every language has areas, where is works fine and others which are tricky to handle with. Even if 
you stick to web-development (which is itself a large area), JS is not ... let's say that well suited from a 
programmers point of view. I'd love to see a beautifully designed language like Ruby doing client side 
web-programming. The other thing is taste: I personally don't like the idea of giving space such a meaning in 
a programming language. That's one of the reasons, I dislike about Python.
Or in other words: Did we really need a dynamic language after PERL? The answer is YES, isn't it?
