I think that as far as a reflection-based stub generator produces the SAME 
information as published in the ECMA documentation, which is public and 
MEANT to be used by implementers, it is LICIT to use it. That is because you 
are just automating what one would have to do by reading the documentation 
and typing appropriate input in the code editor.

The problem is that by using reflection you'll probably find many more 
classes/methods than the ones in the ECMA docs, and USING THAT EXTRA 
INFORMATION in any way may be qualified as reverse engineering.
