While I agree with the design principle, I think it's not a big enough win to
be worth the churn here. People complain all the time that we keep changing
things — we should only do it when we have a truly compelling reason (e.g. a
security problem).
In practice, little non-debug code will likely end up using
eventsource.readyState anyway. It's easier to use the events. It was mostly
added for consistency with XMLHttpRequest, which also uses numbers — and people
don't generally find it onerous to remember which readyState is which for that
API.
