No, but as someone who doesn't write JavaScript at all, I would like the JS engine that comes with a graphical web browser to be simpler than the expanding spec makes possible. I mostly browse with Lynx anyways, but there's a legitimate concern about how much browser developers are being expected to support here, and what the implications of that are.
