That's a start but it shows that there are custom variables and function that you can call using Javascript. Is there a reference for the built in Storyline library that people know of?
Examples of things I'd like to know:
How can I use JS to run animations?
Can I change item states with JS?
Are there libraries that people typically use for JS?
There isn't a whole lot you can do (that's supported) in javascript to interact directly with the player, outside of changing the values of variables that you've created. I think many of us are hoping that a future release will expose much more functionality and player variables. You can use js to change a variable though, and have a trigger act upon that variable.
That being said, you can still do just about anything you like with javascript inside of a web object. With some help, I was able to build a search feature for our courses that searches the closed captioning of the video, then takes the user to that spot in the video.
