It might. If so, so be it, as far as I'm concerned. > I can also see that the Map and Layer classes are tightly coupled, so I > forsee trouble there.

Not in my opinin -- this falls into the "We might not generate alternatives for everything" category. If we need a new map, and the layers need to behave differently, only updated layers will work (in the same way only updated controls will work with newe vector layers, for example).
