Desirable? Thanks. I think that if we change ECMAScript we should align all its APIs too. Otherwise you get two different strings in your code. I do not think that is desirable. There is only a few places in the platform where the code unit rather than code point nature of the platform is exposed so if we introduce some kind of flag that could maybe work. Dealing with the flag in a backwards compatible way is hard though so hopefully adoption is rather quick. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
