discuss: proposed standardization of global by tc-39 #8810

Description

@jasnell

@nodejs/ctc ... there is a proposal on the table in TC-39 to add more standardization around global. See https://github.com/tc39/proposal-global/blob/master/spec.md for details.

currently, the spec defines the data property as configurable but non-enumerable/non-writable. The committee is considering going ahead and making it writable. The key question for us is whether the global data property has to enumerable. It's extremely unlikely that it would be an issue but just to make sure.

@ChALkeR ... would you be able to run some analysis about how existing modules are interacting with global?
