Description Anne 2014-10-06 12:06:58 UTC 
Per bug 23212 and http://heycam.github.io/webidl/#es-iterators it appears that if you define an object that has indexed property getters and a length, you get Symbol.iterator for free. Given that all "legacy" objects that would need legacyiterable are of this form, it seems legacyiterable is in fact not needed.
