Pretty please document the JavaScript macro functions!

This lack of documentation is ridiculous.

JavaScript is the most popular programming language (see
https://developers.slashdot.org/story/17/08/24/1457245/javascript-is-eating-the-world
for an update).

People have been asking for to use JavaScript in macros since Sep 2016 -
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/77779/need-step-by-step-instructions-to-create-new-javascript-macro/

I've also asked for something as simple as a JavaScript currency conversion
macro -
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/98257/javascript-macro-reference/

Yet, nothing?!

Why does LO even support JavaScript then, if it's completely undocumented?

The only slightly relevant stuff I've found on GitHub are three scantily
documented samples at
https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/tree/master/scripting/examples/javascript
