Can't be done.  Looking at the ES5 [[Put]], ownDesc is a data descriptor 
here, so we land in step 3b, which calls [[DefineOwnProperty]], which is 
defined at 
http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/WebIDL/#named-properties-object-defineownproperty 
and throws if "Throw" and silently does nothing otherwise.  ES6 is similar.

Also can't be done.  See
