I agree
I am just saying that java String is not the same as the js String. So
String[] cannot be converted easily to a js string array.
I agree that arrays in other @JsType objects works as expected.
The main difference if I understand your point of view is that I have to
create a js string array from java where in your case it is handed to you
by javascript and you have to cope with that.
Thanks for the insights
