I'd like to support this idea.
Your example looks a bit wrong to me though. It seems to make new
private names per object. Surely we want a private name per 'class'
instead.
var Point = (function() {
var _x = Object.createPrivateName();
var _y = Object.createPrivateName();
var Point = function(x, y) {
this[_x] = x;
this[_y] = y;
}
Point.prototype.myMethodUsing_xAnd_y = function() {...}
return Point;
})()
var p = new Point(1, 2);
