I wish there were a better way to indicate which properties were renameable, because I need this too and I'm not willing to go as far as you did.

You can tell it which properties to keep with `goog.exportSymbol()`

Thanks - I remember seeing that when looking through the docs, but I don't really like that either, unfortunately. I'm using Uglify right now, and I was thinking of adding a pre-minify step that walks the AST for a JSDoc-style annotation on either the properties themselves or a containing object, and pulls out the list of property names to preserve that way.
