Description

JavaScriptSupport does not support addInitializerCall(String,JSONArray), which is supported by RenderSupport. This was intentional, as using a JSONObject (with named key/values) is less likely to cause problems coordinating server-side Java code with client-side JavaScript code.

However, it can be unwieldy and verbose as well. Therefore, it should be re-implemented efficiently ... RenderSupport.addInit(String,JSONArray) still works, but is implemented in a very inefficient way. Instead, it should pass through to new method JavaScriptSupport.addInitializerCall(String,JSONArray).
