fan of MetaData but we will have it in FlexJS

Alex, Metadata is one of the things we have in Flex and not available in
pure JS. I'm a huge advocate of metadata, both for generating code at
compilation time or for later processing at runtime. In Java Annotations
are a huge step forward, and IMO in AS3/Flex Metadata is one of the
features for people wanting to go Flex 4 or FlexJS. We can underestimate
the importance of such feature for the future of FlexJS. As you're one of
the main heads of the project, I'd like to convince you of the importance
of taking Metadata seriously into account when planning whatever feature.
Moreover, I'd like someday to be able to get a decent AOP functionality as
we have in Java.
