I think it's a bad idea to assume that by default all ports will want to expose non-standard API to the web platform without at least considering the situation and having a plan to remove at least the prefixed version.  Please add a flag and, for bonus points, hook up FeatureObserver so we can monitor usage of this property.

Sure thing.  I'll ask around on IRC about FeatureObserver.
