Can't agree more. There is no other language in the world that needs this as badly as JS does. - I am hoping that this would be merged back if it could be somehow concluded that there isn't a much cleaner way to achieve the same result. Even if the resulting JS isn't as clean as what CS produces now. The ICS approach looks safe; they could be assured by similar approaches in more mainstream languages, most prominently C# (and F#) which have much bigger teams attacking the same problems. If the prospect of this getting merged back looks bleak, I might consider switching ICS once I am convinced there aren't any other breaking issues.
