Python allows you to overload the multiplication operator. We have to check
at runtime if the objects being multiplied have overloaded multiplication.
Also, native strings in Python overload the multiplication operator, that's
why you can do:
print '='*10

In javascript objects/dictionaries are one and the same, so one can't be
more efficient than the other.
>> a = {}
Object {}
>> a.foo = 3
3
>> a['foo']
3
If you want to hack on pyjs internals you're definitely going to have to
