总所周知的是，js在目前流行的标准中还不支持私有变量。我在阅读一篇讲js模块化很不错的文章《JavaScript Module Pattern: In-Depth》时，看到一则谴责作者所说的模块化以及大量运用私有变量违反js设计初衷的留言，留言如下：

Module pattern is useless JavaScript mannerism junk. It’s simple product of misunderstanding of JavaScript. Hiding properties and methods in anonymous function does not make sense, except two reasons:
1). I need another variable, and no scope pollution. It’s useful for jQuery- (function($) {})(jQuery), for instance.
2). micro optimization, rarely useful, and only just because Internet Explorer.
Anybody who thinks “private in JavaScript is nice” suffer from false illusion of “safe code”. There is no such thing in dynamic language which JavaScript really is.
If you want method or property as “private”, just mark it in documentation, or use underscore prefix (google closure uses it even as suffix). It’s enough to tell our code readers: “Do not call or use this, and do not except that this “private” property will work forever.

其实我目前的想法跟这位评论者steida有些相似，因为我觉得
1. 那些可能对安全性有要求的操作就不应该放在前端做。
2. 私有变量的确可以提供有效的抽象层次，像js中一直有私有成员用的变量名用下划线开头。我认为这样足够了，而不需要用闭包来专门做出真的私有变量。

各位对js在中实现私有变量有什么看法？
