Description Cameron McCormack 2013-08-03 05:07:44 UTC 
With ES6 we can get rid of the overridden Object.prototype.toString function and define @@toStringTag properties on objects to get the same effect.  http://www.w3.org/mid/CAJ8+Gogzsgr4Quw-SVvKwJX7y5LsaeSG+fWL8DHzLrvaCfrj=Q@mail.gmail.com describes the solution.
