Description
Both SWF and JS allow indexed array syntax for XMLListCollection. For example, mycol[0].
SWF supports indexed array syntax for ICollectionView, but JS does not; it shows undefined.
See attached test case.

Research direction
Start with the attached TestCollectionBrackets.mxml.txt test case and trace the JavaScript implementation of ICollectionView involved in the indexed access. Compare its behavior with the SWF case and verify that mycol[0] returns the expected collection item rather than undefined.
