document.currentScript is useful for scripts which need to be aware of where their script tag is in relation to the rest of the DOM, such as when a script needs to operate only on its sibling elements.

MDC lists the browsers supporting document.currentScript.
See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/currentScript

As of this writing, IE doesn't support this feature. Support is unknown for IE Mobile and Opera Mobile.

+1 note this is implemented in Microsoft Edge at least as of Windows Insider build 14295 (haven't tested release builds). Would be nice to list this sort of thing. :)
