I don't think we want to change this. notImplemented is helpful for bringing up a port, and asserting all over the place would not be useful in those circumstances. We could make the behavior port specific. When ports are mature, they can opt-into it being an assert. My understanding is that even ports that are quite mature still hit notImplemented() fairly often - in particular, on notification calls for Web Inspector and such. |
