--- Comment #2 from Erik Arvidsson <arv@google.com> ---
I think we should just have a data property on the prototype. The spec
currently says that the Object.prototype.toString.call(Foo.prototype) should
return "[object FooPrototype]". This legacy requirement is not needed for the
web. (I assume this behavior came from Gecko's XPCOM bindings?) and Chrome
never supported this. Chrome has always returned "[object Object]" for the
prototype object.
My suggestion is to follow ES6 and just add a data property for the
@@toStringTag to Foo.prototype with the value "Foo".
https://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-map.prototype-@@tostringtag
This would mean that we get:
Object.prototype.toString.call(document.body) === '[object HTMLBodyElement]'
Object.prototype.toString.call(HTMLBodyElement.prototype) === '[object
HTMLBodyElement]'
