There was a big reason why this was getValue/setValue as opposed to
getKey/setKey. You sure this was a good decision to change this?

I must admit I don't immediately remember what that reason was but I too
wanted to change it to getKey/setKey but I resisted that when I had more
information available to me. At this point I don't remember it fully but
know it happens to do with directionality when using reverse or direct
btrees in the index.
