Status: Redundant
This feature has already been implemented, or is already achievable with existing methods.
Being able to get the return value from a JavaScript function called by DM would be helpful. This might require a new syntax because to calling a JS function right now uses the << operator, but most languages I've seen that allow calling into JavaScript give the return value, so it should be possible.

Javascript communication to DM is now possible using special winset topic links in the old format:

window.location = "byond://?foo=bar";


As well as calling verbs via winset:
window.location = "byond://winset?command=someverb somearg";
