Good point. I hadn't thought of compiling old versions of javascript to new versions - that keeps everyone writing in the same language and seems like a better solution to me.

There was an ES4-to-ES3 compiler. The Traceur compiler takes many of the Harmony ideas and compiles to ES3.

Oops, meant to say "compiling new versions of javascript to old versions", not the other way around.
