Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(O) ? // plural

[Andrea Giammarchi]

"thing" ... no "things", just this one ... pliiiiiiiiiz :-)

Also please note that this proposal simplifies [Object.assign(target,
source)](
https://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-object.assign)
too since latter one is basically:

```javascript
Object.defineProperties(
  target,
  Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(source)
);
```

So, in order of priority or what is needed the most, I think with
`Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(O)` we can solve more than
`Object.assign(target, source)` but bear in mind I am not pushing back the
latter one anyhow.

IMO this proposal is just very, very related to ES6 changes due Symbols but
it should have probably been in ES5 too because there was defined
`Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor` which has been indeed upgraded to accept
ES6 `Symbols` too.

The spec as it is kinda a no-brainer, ready for copy and paste once
reviewed, and simple enough I believe the implementation is straight
forward, and I won't mind pushing a patch for V8 to start playing with.

All this, of course, if everyone agrees and there is a consensus at the
next meeting after Rick presentation.

Best Regards
