Description Joshua Bell 2012-10-26 10:24:51 PDT 
Examples:

Source/WebCore/testing/InternalSettings.idl:    sequence<String> userPreferredLanguages();
Source/WebCore/testing/InternalSettings.idl:    void setUserPreferredLanguages(in sequence<String> languages);
Source/WebCore/testing/Internals.idl:    sequence<String> userPreferredLanguages();
Source/WebCore/testing/Internals.idl:    void setUserPreferredLanguages(in sequence<String> languages);
Source/WebCore/testing/Internals.idl:    [Conditional=INSPECTOR] sequence<String> consoleMessageArgumentCounts(in Document document);

These should be using sequence<DOMString>, but when that is used invalid code is generated. The sequence type needs to be mapped to a native type (e.g. DOMString -> String), appropriate headers need to be pulled in based on the native type, etc.

This should be an easy change to the code generators.  We already know how to map DOMString to String in other situations.
