    Resolution: Not A Problem

I'm not sure if my understanding of the problem is 100% accurate, but it seems 
from this ticket like this was a problem in spidermonkey 1.8, with no 
workaround, but it's fixed in 1.9. If we can do what we want to in 1.9 I think 
this is closable as Not A Problem. If you disagree, please reopen?

> In the spidermonkey engine, we use a built-in function sealing for sealing 
> documents so that map functions of arrays no longer works. Array sealing no 
> longer works with javascript 1.8, meaning our document that contain arrays 
> cannot be sealed. The sealing is meant to prevent map functions from 
> modifying the same document that will be passed to other map functions.
> The (hopefully temporary) fix here is to simply remove the document sealing, 
> and map function placed in the same design document will have to be 
> trustworthy that they don't modify the document (the same document is passed 
> to multiple map functions). Non-trustworthy map functions can be placed in 
> their own design documents, they will be run in isolation.
