Re: "prototype" actionscript keyword

Hi,

flash does not require that trailing semicolon at the end of any statement - on the other side
it has the strange behaviour that it interprets
if(something) // blah something blah
 do_something()
as a comment that "happens" if something is true and calls the function every time.
While this can be special-cased (and probably is fixed in the new version by a special case rule),
I believe that ambiguities avoided by a more rigorous language specification pay off in the
long run - tracing the above "feature" in a 1000-line body of code might take a few hours
