Rhino suppose to support all core functionality of JS 1.5. That is if 
you exclude document, window, navigator and screen objects and alert 
etc., then the document should be applicable to Rhino.

Well, there is some info at www.mozilla.org/rhino, see especially 
http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/ScriptingJava.html about Rhino extensions 
to Java scripting. Some Rhino-specifuc features are also mentioned in 
the changelogs, see, for example, 
http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/rhino15R5.html and 
http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/rhino15R4.html
