Details

The implementation of Intl.Collator, Intl.NumberFormat, and Intl.DateTimeFormat currently uses WeakMap instances to keep track of the specified internal properties. Private symbols as planned for ES6 would likely be a better implementation, especially in cross-compartment situations.
Assignee: general → nobody
Private symbols didn't happen for ES2015. And the WeakMap approach is no longer needed (bug 899361, comment #14). Therefore resolving as Won't Fix.
