Can we add here ES3 keyword and reservedword lists?

@mathiasbynens Nice list ;-) I've used this doc http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST-ARCH/ECMA-262,%203rd%20edition,%20December%201999.pdf sections 7.5.2, 7.5.3

Yeah, that write-up is based on the official PDF specs too.

The problem with this is that support for ES3 (with respect to identifier names and reserved words) was so poor that this would be unrepresentative of any implementation. So I think it would be a waste of our time.
