Basically you can only call functions that have been explicitly exposed to the native module mechanism, and if you need some additional functions, they need to be added to a list. Sounds simple enough, and I managed to get that to work, but there is a small catch: it will only work with the firmware that has those functions added as well, so it kind of defeats the whole purpose.

So hopefully in a couple of months it will be possible.
