print is a helper function so it's not specified, and it won't work as console.log for example.
Could you tell us what you are using it for?

Harald, what should we do with print and pprint ? That's something Chrome does not have, and I don't see a strong reason to use that over console.log.

Seems like it is not covered by tests, no special benefit over console.log and non-standard legacy code – LGTM for removing them.
