Good catch, I hadn't seen that before. It definitely looks like WebScript and the new JavaScriptCore API are strongly related. It's interesting how hard the WebScript stuff is to find without knowing the name, it didn't turn up in any of my Googling when researching the post.
The fact that it's a refactoring (even a very nice one, as it seems to be) rather than a brand new API does make it less likely that Apple has any particular future plans for the API, which in turn make much of the speculation in the post even more speculative. I'm going to make an update to the post with a link to WebScript as well as a bit of additional commentary.
