    Interesting; of course; but it is written as if for a
    printed-on-paper magazine.
    Perhaps the author could add a live working example of each (i.e.
    executing in the reader's browser) with whatever is needed to test
    it in eval(code) or try...catch to make it safe, so that a reader
    could at least see immediately whether the browser in use could
    use that new feature.
    Or ECMA could do that for each new set of features.
    I see that 2**3 has arrived in my Firefox - but 2***3 fails, as
    expected, just like 2**3 should have done a decade ago.
