The best that seems possible is some horribly indirect operation like (v) => Error.prototype.toString.call({ name: v, message: "" }).  That seems undesirable to me.  I'm not convinced that having String deviate from ToString is a good thing.

Personally, I use the following expression in order to coerce a variable to a string:

	var obj = this + ''

and its in-place variant:

	x += ''

I think it'll continue to work in ES6.
