None to my knowledge. There is people and projects doing cool stuff like 
ecmascript[1] or
javascript_lexer[2] and I thought that leveraging from projects like those 
could provide any sort of
advantage to Emacs in speed, code maintenance or user experience.

I will try to present a dynamic module and see how that goes, after doing my 
due research on js.el
