Whomever adds delete/continue back to the spec needs to inline into the spec an explanation of why it's ok per ES5. Most (all) of us grew up pre ES5 and *believe* that they're truly reserved keywords and that what you're doing is invalid. So without inlining the explanation into the spec, you're asking for people to think you're crazy. Personally, i think trying to mark something as locally unreserved is crazy, since you're fighting the web's collective knowledge. http://javascript.about.com/od/reference/g/rdelete.htm Definition: The delete statement deletes an object that was created using the new statement. Delete is a reserved word and cannot be used for anything other than deleting an object. Note that it seems clear that people here do not care about the web's collective knowledge, so I'm not asking you to stop.
