I have a suspicion that every great Perl, Ruby, and Python developer can write reasonable JS, which actually makes it an even bigger community still.

I have a feeling that that's correct, but to the same degree that every great Perl, Ruby, and Python developer can write reasonable code in any of Perl, Ruby, and Python given good reference docs. The languages aren't really all that different if you take a macro view (and include lisps, static typed languages, etc).
