There is a line explaining this in the hobo-jquery-ui main page:
Options that expect a type other than string can be provided by
passing a ruby object:
<datepicker dayNamesMin="&['Di', 'Lu', 'Ma', 'Me', 'Je', 'Ve', 'Sa']" />
I emphasize this further in hobo-jquery-ui is through the use of
examples for the tags. For instance:
<combobox autoFill="&false" clearButton="&false"/>
Other than having the user use an ampersand, there's also a nice way
of passing in true:
<combobox autoFill/>
is equivalent to
<combobox autoFill="&true"/>
