The question is how similar? Coffeescript has come a long way in keeping symbols similar enough to be debuggable and not polluting the javascript namespace. Once the code grows to a certain size, tracing from line number in error to a line of code in your source becomes non-trivial.

Also, since this has been a constant pain for me when using Google Closure compiler, how do you anticipate this tool working with existing javascript libraries? Hypothetically, can I port a C# application ( a reasonable/simple one, not with crazy winforms and stuff)? Is there a spec you're adhering to?
