I have a pretty good set of ObjectModelExtensions for JS if you're interested. 
  As it is, they should all work in synchronet.  Most of them are for things 
that are sometimes surprising aren't *IN* JavaScript's language.  Though it's 
pretty easy to extend/graft any object/class after the fact.

I have stuff for some .toFormat overload methods for String and Date.  I've 
also spent a little time trying to get base2 functioning in Synchronet 
properly, but that's been a bit of an effort.  base.js works without much 
trouble though.  Still need to implement a number formatter for 
String.toFormat.  It does work with dates as-is ex:

var fmt = "This is a string with a date-time of " +
     "{dtm:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} " +
     "as well as another property of {prop2}.";
var fmt2 = "This uses numbered arguments {0} and {1}";

var now = new Date();
var ret = fmt.toFormat({ dtm:now, prop2: 6 });
var ret2 = fmt2.toFormat(now, 5);
