/**
 * JSObject allows Java to manipulate objects that are
 * defined in JavaScript.
 * Values passed from Java to JavaScript are converted as
 * follows:<ul>
 * <li>JSObject is converted to the original JavaScript object
 * <li>Any other Java object is converted to a JavaScript wrapper,
 *   which can be used to access methods and fields of the java object.
 *   Converting this wrapper to a string will call the toString method
 *   on the original object, converting to a number will call the
 *   doubleValue method if possible and fail otherwise.  Converting
 *   to a boolean will try to call the booleanValue method in the
 *   same way.
 * <li>Java arrays are wrapped with a JavaScript object that understands
 *   array.length and array[index]
 * <li>A Java boolean is converted to a JavaScript boolean
 * <li>Java byte, char, short, int, long, float, and double are converted
 *   to JavaScript numbers
 * </ul>
 * Values passed from JavaScript to Java are converted as follows:<ul>
 * <li>objects which are wrappers around java objects are unwrapped
 * <li>other objects are wrapped with a JSObject
 * <li>strings, numbers and booleans are converted to String, Double,
 *   and Boolean objects respectively
 * </ul>
 * This means that all JavaScript values show up as some kind
 * of java.lang.Object in Java.  In order to make much use of them,
 * you will have to cast them to the appropriate subclass of Object,
 * e.g. <code>(String) window.getMember("name");</code> or
 * <code>(JSObject) window.getMember("document");</code>.
