Description Simon Hausmann 2012-08-22 04:15:07 PDT 
The current code for converting a QVariant list type to a JS array involves converting each element.

This could be implemented more efficiently by introducing a dedicated array class/type that converts the elements lazily on-demand.

I wouldn't even call it a lazy conversion. What we are missing is essentially a Qt wrapper for JSValues, a QtWebKit version of QJSValue. 

Btw, this bug probably also blocks bug #39717
