`no-var` rule is going to affect adoption of es6

[chrisirhc]

Since var is everywhere in the current pre-es6 codebase, transitioning over to es6 would mean rewriting every variable declaration in the codebase to pass es6 linting. Is this what we want?

It's a trivial refactor using sed

[chrisirhc]

Not if you're relying on var scoping.

[Raynos]

Oh. Ugh.. :(

[chrisirhc]

I'll ponder about this more, maybe it'll end up being an easy sed. Just wanted to put this up for comment/thoughts.

Why no --es6 flag for linting es6 code?
