NAK. The term "javascript" is not generally understood to be synonymous
to "ECMAScript implementations". The FAQ of this newsgroup[1]
define(s|d) it this way, though. Anyhow, one of the issues when using
the umbrella term "javascript" is that often not only "ECMAScript
implementations" are meant, but rather libraries/APIs (e.g. the DOM) are
meant as well what dilutes the discussion even more.
