RFE for WM (why don't we get a free open source JIRA install?)... which 
I may be able to turn myself too but it's probably wise to get a 
go-ahead first ;-)

In the introspection code, when failures occur, I believe we should make 
the error messages like this simpler to understand for non-Java programmers.

i.e. we could quite easily detect that class name Lxxxxx is an array, so 
we should say so in the message. i.e. "No such method contains() found 
on object, which is an array of java.lang.Object"

I'm not sure there are any other changes along those lines, I remember a 
lot of work went into this with failed property introspections to 
there's probably not that much that can be improved.

Cheers
