Many other minifiers also munge the symbols (e.g. YUI compressor). And why should this process retain anything anyways? If you want your source-code available

  > And why should this process retain anything anyways? Because javascript has some reflection, and also because of weird scoping rules (with, eval, etc.) you can never be sure where a symbol comes from unless you have access to the exact version of every other script on the page, e.g. jquery, etc) > If you want your source-code available for download then... put up a download link. I agree - but there is still a huge difference between deminified and decompiled source readbility - which is all I was saying.
