Thanks Brendan, finally got it. Previously, I didn't understand that the 
JSClass ops provide a hooking mechanism into the script engine's 
property retrieval and resolution functionality.

It puzzled me to no end how my JSClass.getProperty function would 
magically produce the property value in the rval parameter. Running the 
console interpreter in gdb and tracing out how property values are 
retrieved prior to calling OBJ_GET_PROPERTY helps explain things.
