If you try to export a project that has an AJAX or NW.js plugin using the new UglifyJS minifier, it will fail and show an error. This affects the UglifyJS minifier as a whole, regardless of which minify mode you choose, and only these two specific plugins. Other Construct plugins and behaviors are not affected.
Steps to reproduce
Create a new project
Add an AJAX or NW.js plugin to it
Export it with UglifyJS (with any minify mode option)
Observed result
Export shows the following errors, depending on the plugin used:
AJAX
NW.js
Expected result
Export goes off without any errors!
