Just re-parsed that message - Don't get me wrong, I love overkill! I'd have
gone with a helper class that watches an IList rather than subclassing
Collection though. That's how I decided to build my list indexer (get by
fieldValue). That way you can watch any IList, and in my case have multiple
indexes on one list. Also, you could add support for XMLList just by
changing the existing indexer class.
