// Dictionary is useful when writing bindings for a function that either
// receives an arbitrary JavaScript object as an argument or returns an
// arbitrary JavaScript object as a result. For example, Dictionary is useful
// when you might use the |dictionary| type in WebIDL:

//   http://heycam.github.io/webidl/#idl-dictionaries
//
// WARNING: You cannot retain a Dictionary object in the heap. The underlying
//          storage for Dictionary is tied to the closest enclosing
//          v8::HandleScope. Generally speaking, you should store a Dictionary
//          on the stack.
