No, it does not mean that. It just means that just did not comment on 
that ;)!

To get XmlObject from E4X JS object "x" use:

Wrapper wrap = (Wrapper)ScriptableObject.callMethod(x, "getXmlObject", 
new Object[0]);

XmlObject xmlObject = (XmlObject)wrap.unwrap();

which uses the fact that E4X objects in Rhino provides for scripts 
"getXmlObject()" method. so in JS the above fragment reduces to :

Then you can call any method on the resulting xmlObject that XMLBeans 
provides.

Note also that this machinery is intended to be used from scripts since 
in JS the above code reduces to:

var x = <xml>TEST</xml>;
....
var xmlObject = x.getXmlObject();

And do not use NativeJavaObject in application code: it is not a part of 
public API either, use Wrapper interface instead.
