Yes.  We need to be more careful on being backward compatible.

Yes.

Yep, indeed -- I have just this in my emacs.el for inline js:

(add-to-list 'org-src-lang-modes '("inline-js" . javascript))
(defvar org-babel-default-header-args:inline-js
  '((:results . "html")
    (:exports . "results")))
(defun org-babel-execute:inline-js (body _params)
  (format "<script type=\"text/javascript\">\n%s\n</script>" body))

Maybe this could be made available too.

I will think more about this.

One way to solve this on Yehonathan's side is to update klipse.js and
follow the instruction on librejs on how to make librejs accept the js
code as "safe":

https://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/free-your-javascript.html

I don't know how much work is involved in this, though.
