And there is a working implementation called JSTalk (http://gusmueller.com/blog/archives/2009/03/introducing_jstalk__an_alternative_to_applescript.html). Can you explain what it means to "replace Applescript with Javascript"? Do you mean changing MacOS to get rid of Applescript entirely? Or making Emacs use Javascript on GNU-like systems the same way it uses Applescript on MacOS?
