I think this is not a bug. "length" is not the same as number of
properties in an object. For example, if you try this:
var a = [3, 5, 66];
a.foo = "nar";
for (var i = 0; i < a.length; i++)
print(a[i]);
"length" is 3 [and not 4]. keySet size is the number of "keys"
(properties). You've to get "length" property of the array.

When looping an array in javascript I would typically do something like
this...
for(var i = 0; i< arr.length; i++) {
console.log('Index: ' + i + ' = ' + arr[i]);
}
When looping a javascript array using the ScriptObjectMirror I would
initially think to use the same syntax, however I would swap .length with
.size() since that method is available.
.size() however is not the same as .length in this case. I'm not saying
that is a bug, just noting the confusion it could cause when/if someone
write's a java loop like that and in the future they run into an undefined
item in the middle of the javascript array. See this example...
