Re: Figuring out the behavior of WindowProxy in the face of non-configurable properties

Domenic's https://github.com/domenic/window-proxy-spec seems headed in the
right direction. I suggest starting there.

Test proposals by self-hosting in ES6. Such self hosting would use direct
proxies *not* because the term "proxy" in WindowProxy has any historical
relation -- it does not -- but because the rest of ES6 is not powerful
enough to self-host its behavior.
