[javascript] Field declaration should end with ';'

[ris58h]

Code:

class Foo {
    bar baz;
}

The code isn't correct according to documentation https://tc39.es/ecma262/multipage/ecmascript-language-functions-and-classes.html#prod-ClassElement and parsing should fail.

Yes, I just saw this last week while scraping the Spec. But, it turns out that Node, which is built on V8, accepts the field with or without the semi-colon. So, what is "JavaScript"? Is the ECMAScript Spec correct? How is javascript and ecmascript supposed to differ in this repo?

Good question. I've checked Firefox and it allows a field declaration without semicolon so the code below is OK

class Foo {
    bar
    baz
}

but

class Foo {
    bar baz
}

is not OK and throws

Uncaught SyntaxError: unexpected token: identifier debugger eval code:2:8
