Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-291:
-----------------------------------------

It looks like multiple JavaScript interpreters (Rhino, Firefox, Chrome) 
interpret bracket indices of strings as converting the strings into arrays 
(object actually) and accessing the respective character at the given position.

>From that point of view, this works correctly and there is nothing we can and 
>should do about it.

> Clarify and test access to multi-valued Properties from server-side javascript

> In SLING-282, Michael Marth writes:
> the property "to" is multivalued.
> in the script I do something like:
>  <%= currentNode["to"][0] %>
> if the value of "to" has only one value I seem to get back this value as one 
> string so [0] gives me the first character. if "to" has 2 values I get back a 
> collection so [0] gives me the first element. this is consistent with what 
> ["to"].length gives me.
> I am not 100% sure if this is a bug (might be my lack of understanding for 
> javascript), if so a comment on how to determine the result length of a 
> multi-valued property would be appreciated.
