      Use of JS scripting facilities is intended to be made via the interfaces in src/mongo/scripting, insulating clients from details of the particular scripting engine in use. However, the shell's EncryptedDBClientBase class bypasses this interface and reaches directly down to the MozJS specific scripting implementations. This should be revisited so that the shell is not tied to details of the particular scripting provider.
