Re: [heycam/webidl] ES bindings for constants on Globals (#528)

There's a reason globals are special-cased in terms of property location.  It's because putting things on the prototype object breaks horribly when people try to polyfill and the var shadows the actual property.  That's why methods and attributes are special-cased in terms of location.

Maybe this is not a problem for constants, but it's hard to tell without actual use cases when people try to make their code work both in browsers with and without the constants.
