NSDictionary and JSCocoa

[Corey]

If I open a plist via JSCocoa like this:

dict = OSX.NSDictionary.dictionaryWithContentsOfFile("some.plist")

I can access `dict` just fine. But if there is an NSArray of NSStrings
inside that dictionary I run into some problems.

result = dict.myArrayOfStrings.indexOf("myString")

The array of strings returned are boxed(unboxed?) NSString objects. So
I can't compare the javascript string to the strings in
dict.arrayOfString without create a new array and calling toValue() on
each element. This isn't that big of a deal, but I seem to be calling
toValue() a lot.

Is there a method that recessively boxes values in containers
(NSArray and NSDictionary)? If not, any tips on how I could go about
writing something like that?

I've added .toJS() to convert ObjC values to Javascript.

dict = OSX.NSDictionary.dictionaryWithContentsOfFile("some.plist")

var jsDict = __jsc__.toJS(dict)
