[ANN] JSFixed recommendations document

[Aymeric Vitte]

Comments:

- fat arrow : I am not a fan of the syntax but it is usefull and does 
fix the unlogical behavior of |this| (the rules are the same for the 
|this| binding, it does not change except that you must apply it to the 
surrounding environment), the thin arrow (as soft binding's use I 
suppose) looks to be a concern of jquery people only
- Object.extend : too complicate if we see all the discussions around it 
(Put/defineProperty), should be replaced maybe by an 
Object.make(proto,props) or even an Object.clone
- Existential operator : good idea, I thought (maybe wrongly) that 
undefined.a should be undefined (then undefined.a.b.c is undefined), we 
encounter it everyday, the ?? proposal does not fix everything, now the 
case we can think about is when you load an API which loads scripts that 
are loading others asynchronously. Then you can never know when you 
api.a.b.c (or one of them) will be available, then you do :

if (typeof(api)=="undefined") {try later} else if 
(typeof(api.a)=="undefined") {try later} else if 
(typeof(api.a.b)=="undefined") {try later} else if (etc...)

instead of :

if (typeof(api.a.b.c)=="undefined") {try later} else {do the job}  or if 
(!api.a.b.c) {try later} else {do the job}
