Javascript becoming more Pythonic?

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/New_in_JavaScript_1.7

Javascript is picking up Iterators and Generators (with the yield keyword). And array comprehensions! Does this look familiar? 

var ten_squares = [i * i for (i in range(0, 10))];

I wish browsers would simply open it up to allow: 

<script type="text/python" src="mypython.py" />

Most graphical toolkits have APIs for many languages, why not the browser?

But I like seeing that Javascript is seemingly becoming more Pythonic.
