Re: [heycam/webidl] ES bindings for constants on Globals (#528)

There's a reason globals are special-cased in terms of property ___location.  It's because putting things on the prototype object breaks horribly when people try to polyfill and the var shadows the actual property.  That's why methods and attributes are special-cased in terms of ___location.

Maybe this is not a problem for constants, but it's hard to tell without actual use cases when people try to make their code work both in browsers with and without the constants.
