Description Peter Van der Beken 2013-06-28 08:01:10 UTC 
Right now only [[GetOwnProperty]] is defined, the spec should probably define both [[DefineOwnProperty]] and [[Delete]] too. The object is extensible, so need to define what happens for new properties. The existing properties are not writable but they are configurable, so need to define what happens if they're made writable and then set.

OK, fixed:
