Cannot execute method named as "delete" from javascript in flow

           Summary: Cannot execute method named as "delete" from javascript
                    in flow
           Product: Cocoon 2
           Version: Current CVS 2.1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Flowscript
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Error message is:

org.apache.avalon.framework.CascadingRuntimeException: missing name after . 
operator

problematic code:

session.delete(bean);

Cocoon tries to interprete delete as standard delete function from JavaScript 
instead of method of object session.
Solution for this problem is to use java reflection and it's also not so simple 
because "class" is also reserved word and Packages.java.lang.Object.class 
returns the same exception.

Correct invocation of above code is:

var paramDefs = new Array(1);
paramDefs[0] = new Packages.java.lang.Class.forName("java.lang.Object");
var method = session.getClass().getMethod("delete", paramDefs);         
var paramValues = new Array(1);
paramValues[0] = bean;
method.invoke(session, paramValues);
