Right, I totally agree. Where the problem occurs though in this particular scenario is when :optimizations is set to `advanced`. Code: (. (js/Showdown.converter.) makeHtml b-txt safe) Code with optimizations set to `simple`: goog.dom.htmlToDocumentFragment.call(null,(new goog.global.Showdown.converter).makeHtml(a,"false") -> <p>working</p> Code with optimizations set to `advanced`: vd.call(i,(new q.Showdown.converter).Fb(b,"false") -> TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'Fb' The makeHtml got renamed to `Fb`. Isn't this what the Google Closure `externs`[1] compiler flag is meant to solve?
