Changing JS is just not a great idea and I think Node.js has been wise to avoid it.

If you're going to innovate, then design a language that compiles down to JS that provides the innovation. CoffeeScript.

If you want to take that a step further, look at ClojureScript. Want delimited continuations? Fine. All w/o requiring you to fork Node.js or CoffeeScript.
