-====== Array Prototypes ======
-===== Array.prototype.commaList() =====
-Returns a proper serial-comma-separated string list of the list elements' toString() values, including "and", or "nothing" if the list is empty.
-<code>
-// Returns "a two-dollar pistol, a Stetson hat, and a shotgun":
-[ "a two-dollar pistol", "a Stetson hat", "a shotgun" ].commaList()
-// Returns "a two-dollar pistol and a Stetson hat":
-[ "a two-dollar pistol", "a Stetson hat" ].commaList()
-// Returns "a two-dollar pistol":
-[ "a two-dollar pistol" ].commaList()
-// Returns "nothing":
-[].commaList()
-</code>
-===== Array.prototype.CommaList() =====
-As above, but with the first letter of the returned string capitalized.
-===== Array.prototype.aList =====
-Assuming an array of PersistentObjects (or subclasses thereof) or persistent object IDs (may be mixed), returns a serial-comma-separated description like .commaList(), but using those objects' .aName methods.
-<code>
-// Assuming pistol and shotgun are valid PersistentObjects, and "hat" is the id of a valid
-//  PersistentObject, returns "a two-dollar pistol, a Stetson hat, and a shotgun":
-[ pistol, "hat", shotgun ].aList()
-</code>
-===== Array.prototype.AList() =====
-As above, but with the first letter of the returned string capitalized.
-===== Array.prototype.theList =====
-Assuming an array of PersistentObjects (or subclasses thereof) or persistent object IDs (may be mixed), returns a serial-comma-separated description like .commaList(), but using those objects' .theName methods.
-<code>
-// Assuming pistol and shotgun are valid PersistentObjects, and "hat" is the id of a valid
-//  PersistentObject, returns "the two-dollar pistol, the Stetson hat, and the shotgun":
-[ pistol, "hat", shotgun ].theList()
-</code>
-===== Array.prototype.TheList() =====
-As above, but with the first letter of the returned string capitalized.
-===== Array.prototype.nList =====
-Assuming an array of PersistentObjects (or subclasses thereof), or persistent object IDs, or functions (may be mixed), returns a serial-comma-separated description like .commaList(), but using those objects' .name fields.  Useful for things like "your such-and-suches".
-<code>
-// Assuming pistol and shotgun are valid PersistentObjects, and "hat" is the id of a valid
-//  PersistentObject, returns "two-dollar pistol, Stetson hat, and shotgun":
-[ pistol, "hat", shotgun ].theList()
-</code>
-===== Array.prototype.NList() =====
-As above, but with the first letter of the returned string capitalized.
