===== Data types =====
-Currently, two data types are available: Lists and Arrays. Both represent
sequence of items and aim to have a similar interface to the native

+One important limitation is that when you create an Eina collection you must
pass the type of object that will be stored. This is required to allow the
binding do the correct conversion between Javascript types and C/C++ types due
to the former's static nature.
Besides the constructor function, they differ in the way the items are stored
underneath. ''efl.List'' are doubly-linked lists, with relatively fast
insert/delete operations in the middle of the collection while ''efl.Array''
objects are contiguous memory arrays, with fast data access (compared to Lists)
but costly to insert or delete items in the middle of the collection.
