How did you reuse it for multiple purposes without having a type entity? For example I don't want address specific key/values operating on groupName strings, that's why I'm proposing to add the type pattern to the entity.
And I think you'll find it is actively used for its intended purpose, for example both google checkout and the first ebay component make use of the methods in PartyWorker that in turn use AddressMatchMap and those components are fairly recent additions. I do plan on adding javadocs to the worker methods though, I'm guessing a lot of people simply aren't aware of them and what they do.
