JSON.stringify() does something slightly different than what you can do by reimplementing toString(). 

For toString(), the default implementation for the object prototype will currently get used. Implementing an invokable method on the wrapped QObject would be nice, but currently there is some logic in the engine missing that would allow that method to get picked up automatically.
