Firefox nightly - idx fails to match TypeErrors

See original GitHub issue

TypeErrors in Firefox nightly do not pass the undefinedPattern and nullPattern tests.

It’s easily reproducible:

  • Go to this JSFiddle
  • Open the Debugger and check Pause on exception
  • Observe that the error is rethrown while it should be handled on line 65.

This is due to TypeErrors messages in Firefox nightly being different from regular Firefox, see the same example in regular Firefox:

Yeah well, I think the foundation of this package is a bit broken: it relies on the error messages which are far from being reliable.

We eventually decided not to use it.

In this case, be more precise on the README maybe. Because having this information only in the babel section means if you don’t have babel or don’t want to use it via babel, you won’t read this part.
