Blog posts about (and against) CoffeeScript features are great, as is discussion on HN, as is discussion on the issues pages. In addition, nothing in CoffeeScript is set in stone -- because every script compiled with every version of CoffeeScript is compatible with every other version, we're much more comfortable making changes to the language than we otherwise would be. If you can make the case that this change is a good idea, we'll definitely make it. So feel free to comment on the old issue or open a new one if you wish. |

This attitude concerns me. I can't just say "oh, that's CoffeeScript 1.0 stuff, just trash it, the JS still works". I still have to update the CoffeeScript to upgrade the version. There's no less risk in breaking backwards compat with CoffeeScript than any other language.
