You're barking up the wrong tree here. In day-to-day JavaScript practice (at least in my experience) there is very little actual object orientation involved. The frameworks do the OO stuff, "client" code is mostly object literals and JSON. Hardly anything has a prototype other than "object". And switch statements are all over the place. I don't agree with this style of programming, I'm with you on replacing switches with polymorphism. But I'm afraid the JS world won't listen.
