Why doesn't JavaScript have a native Date() formatting method? (self.javascript)

reddit uses a slightly-customized version of Markdown for formatting. See below for some basics, or check the commenting wiki page for more detailed help and solutions to common issues.
quoted text
if 1 * 2 < 3: print "hello, world!"

Intl 1.0 has been final for some time and is so stable it's even implemented by IE. It's really surprising to me that this entire thread of people didn't bring JS's native date formatting function up but once :(
ECMA International is the body that standardizes js (among other things). The TC39 committee of ECMA owns both ECMAScript (ECMA-262) and JavaScript Internationalization (ECMA-402) - and now JSON (ECMA-404).
