I looked at your changes.  That's a clever idea.  It would probably fail
the typeof test.  We could hack is/as to accept it as well if we want.

We could add options to suppress conversions.  I'd be tempted to do it at
the class or method level instead of as a configuration option that would
affect all files.  We have "directives" like @flexjsignorecoercion that we
are already using to alter output.

Thoughts?
