support matrix
what browsers should we actually support here? RB has a bottom at ie11, and that seems fairly standard now, should we do that? react still theoretically supports ie9+ but in practice it asks you to pollyfill things like RAF, and really only handles the inconsistencies in places where it's not much more work above the ie11 support
In a quick run through i think we'd be able to remove a fair bit of cruft doing ie11+, removing ie8 gets us a lot but the ie9-10 support is not nothing. Question is who is stuck on ie9-10? In practice those people are almost certainly on ie11. I've never had a support issue for ie9-10 specifically
For people on IE 9 or IE 10, would the removed functionality be easily provided by the same polyfills they'd use for React?
Not really, apart from rAF, since most of the stuff here are essentially polyfills
let's remove IE8 support and see what's left. bootstrap annoyingly supports ie10 so we wouldn't get big jump in features anyway
Is it ready to release?
