You misunderstood the scope. We would be changing the class string if
we change the web-facing behavior here.
Or put another way, if we want to change to @@toStringTag for DOM
objects (which we do) and _if_ we want that change to change the
behavior of Object.prototype.toString on DOM prototypes, then we would
roll that out in two stages:
1) Change the class strings on DOM prototype objects, so the
Object.prototype.toString changes (and the
Debugger.Object.prototype.class thing changes too, sadly).
2) Add @@toStringTag stuff.
The idea being to separate breakage from the Object.prototype.toString
changing from breakage from using @@toStringTag instead of class strings
to implement the behavior.
