Prepping for ES8 Changes

See original GitHub issue

Async functions are a finished proposal and will be in the ES2017 spec. There are a couple of other interesting items I’d like to work on (though they probably won’t make it to ES2017).

My team is allowed to use any feature at Stage 3 of the proposal process or higher: https://github.com/tc39/proposals

Is there a plan for handling this?

I was considering adding an ECMASCRIPT8 and ECMASCRIPT8_STRICT language level. But for features which weren’t yet in any formalized spec, I was considering adding ECMASCRIPT_NEXT which is consistent with Babel.

I am, in fact, very close to having the async functions transpilation working. They’re working in not-yet-submitted code now.

What are these object rest/spread parameters you mention? I thought we were already transpiling all of the rest/spread stuff. Could you give me an example?

ECMASCRIPT_NEXT was added.
