+ And other similar APIs will either need to be rewritten to not-use them. For example, @hl.scala{AtomicXXXs} can be written without threading/unsafe APIs because Javascript is single-threaded, making the implementation for e.g. an @hl.scala{AtomicBoolean} pretty trivial:

+ Others can't be ported at all (e.g. @code{java.io.File}) simply because the API capabilities they provide (blocking reads & writes to files) do not exist in the Javascript runtime.
