            Bug ID: 145460
           Summary: Make Function.(name|length) configurable
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

This is an important feature for OOP libraries: typically classes are emulated using functions, hence class *static* properties are properties of the function object that represents the class.  Since '.name' and '.length' properties are read-only and non-configurable for functions, there is no way to have '.name' and '.length' static properties for classes.

This is something that has already been fixed in Chrome and Firefox:

- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1084019
- https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/f6cd009efd7a032907b11265e74102b0d45207a1%5E!/

And InternetExplorer doesn't have any restrictions on these properties, which leaves WebKit/Safari the only browser that doesn't support this.
