How to get the design handle in a script function [message #542022]

In BIRT 2.5.2, I've created a plugin that extends org.eclipse.birt.core.ScriptFunctionService and created a function. I call my function in the onPrepare event of a data control and pass it this as an argument. Inside the function I get an instance of org.mozilla.javascript.NativeObject for that argument.

What I need is org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.DesignElementHandle because I want to change the design in the function. I do know how to get DesignElementHandle from a org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.script.element.IDesignEle ment using reflection, but I can't see how to get from NativeObject to either DesignElementHandle or IDesignElement.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
