I hope ES.next gets a bunch of the goodness that is outlined in Harmony - this would mostly eradicate the need for stop-gap libraries like pd, or transpilers like CoffeeScript. http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:object_litera...

And being able to do

    var obj = protoObj <| { ... properties ... }

would be fantastic. If I that, and short function syntax then I'd be happy.

You need all three I'm afraid.

We need an easy way to mixin/extend objects.

   var obj = protoObj <| mixin({ ... properties ... }, mixinA);

We also need a solid way to create instances.

   object.create(obj);
   obj.constructor();

is just too verbose. There is some talk around making `new` work with object exemplars which would be great.
