Comment:
Where this says &quot;Number object&quot; and &quot;String object&quot;, it should say &quot;number&quot;
and &quot;string&quot;. Normal strings and numbers are not objects. A &quot;String object&quot; is
actually a different kind of thing (rarely used).

Status: Accepted
Change Description: see diff given below
Rationale: Concurred with reporter&apos;s comments.

Let me know if I screwed it up. I&apos;m pretty sure we have to handle the objects too, I just forgot about the non-object forms. (I still don&apos;t really see where in the spec they get coerced back and forth but that&apos;s another story.) I also added Boolean which I&apos;d forgotten.</thetext>
