If this is from a binary component, i would advise against passing
JSVals directly, because the APIs you need to manipulate are no longer
exported (they're still temporarily exported in Windows IIUC, but
that's changing soon). See
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=978995

Instead, you might consider passing an [array] of nsIVariants. See the
example below:
