Description

From what I understand IE8 is still (kind of) supported, right?

When a user logs in to the backend with IE8 they won't see anything but a white page caused by the following JS exception:

Webpage error details

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.2; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Message: 'TYPO3.state.ExtDirectProvider' is null or not an object
Line: 135

The error occurs here

TYPO3.settings.ShortcutMenu.delete.ajaxUrl

delete is a reserved word in JavaScript and causes problems in IE8 (and lower) only.

Regression from #56356.

Also I used the following regexp to look for similar issues, but did not find any:

(?<=\.)(brake|case|catch|continue|debugger|default|delete|do|else|finally|for|function|if|in|instanceof|new|return|switch|this|throw|try|typeof|var|void|while|with)(?!\w)

seems that there is another issue once this is solved:

I did a little bit of debugging (IE8 and "debugging" - haha) and this one is really confusing. TYPO3.settings.ModuleMenu is set correctly in the HTML Source Code, but it seems to get lost somewhere. It could be something like reported on stackoverflow but I don't have more time to look in that more deeply atm. Sorry.
