--- Comment #1 from Brendan Eich <brendan@mozilla.org> ---
The plan is to put much-wanted methods on Iterator.prototype, in ES7. The
iteration protocol in JS is still structural, but Iterator() provides an
adapter from structural to nominal, with map/filter/etc. handy methods via
prototypal inheritance.

Dave should correct me on anything amiss here. I hope this helps improve the
web platform sooner.
