I don't know where you're getting this from. @@create is the way classes
and subclassing work in ES6, and any browser that wants to implement class
syntax will need to deal with it.

It may not be at the top of anyone's February 2014 hit-list, but I don't
get any sense that classes are low priority for browser vendors either.
