I got some time and played with js2. It turns out that nXhtml includes
a modified version of js2, but it wasn't completely debugged, and the
nXhtml author deprecated it in a comment. Good thing -- running under
mumamo, it badly messes up the parsing. There's more work to be done
there, and I'm not the one to do it.
I had some success with the original version of js2, however. When I
manually invoke js2-mode on a "pure" .js file, it does an excellent job,
including the parsing, and I get useful information in the methods buffer.
Unfortunately, something in the nXhtml, CEDET, or ECB initialization
code prevents js2-mode from kicking in automatically when I load a .js
file (even though I've set it up properly in my .emacs); I have to
explicitly change the mode. I can live with that for now, but if anyone
has some hints on where to look to change this, I'd be most appreciative.
