Detect Array/Object Destructuring

Is it possible to add Array/Object Destructuring as a new feature?

Object Destructuring:

const {"some property": someProperty} = obj;
var {w, x, ...remaining} = {w: 1, x: 2, y: 3, z: 4};

Array Destructuring:

var [x, y, ...remaining] = [1, 2, 3, 4];
var [x, , ...remaining] = [1, 2, 3, 4];

It is hard to detect Destructuring from VariableDecleration.

What do you mean by “as a new feature”?

You should look for BindingElement, that means that descructing was used in code. “Name” and “property name” will give you what you’re destructing (required) and how you’ve named it (optional). Presence of dotDotDotToken will tell if you if spread operator was used. OmittedExpression will be present in case you emit an element when destructing an array.

@HamedFathi for sure! I’ve opened #700.
