Details

The remote protocol needs to be extended to support symbol-named properties. At the very least:

- We need to specify what a symbol grip looks like. JSON can't convey symbols, so we'll need something like { type: "symbol", name: "foo" }.

- Anything that deals with object property names or property lists must be expanded or get a companion request for dealing with symbol-named properties.
