This can't be the primary goal. Making it the best cluster manager would be
great though!

One thing we need in vertx-infinispan is the ability to clean the multimap,
meaning removing some key/value pairs if value matches criteria.
It doesn't seem possible with this interface. At least, it misses a method
to get all the keys from this multimap. Ideally, I would like to be able to
supply a Serializable Predicate.
