I would really like if Unicode properties were implemented. I'd also like to see a RegExp escape function. String padding sees common enough usage that it should be added.

Unicode properties are behind an experimental flag: --harmony-regexp-property

I do support the addition. It's an useful feature. Just couldn't stop myself :).

the whole reason left pad was such a big deal is because of padStart.

People writing polyfil's to add padStart to String.prototype used left-pad.
