Yeah, Babel and the Babel team is great. I got very suspicious of the project after my first experience with it broke perfectly valid code, but after reporting the issue and then another and having them fix it almost immediately they won my confidence back. :)

For production code I'd still stick to a whitelist of features that have been released for at least a month though. Babel is aggressively pursuing ES6 coverage and new features might not have all edge cases covered when they're released. Give them one month though and with their responsiveness it's 90% likely it's going to be fixed.
