ES2017 is also a much more consequential revision:

* async functions

* shared buffers (between workers) and atomic operations for these buffers

* additional native object methods (Object.values, Object.entries, Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor, string padding)

* trailing commas in function argument lists (definition & callsite)

* unicode case folding in /ui
