Justin,
  Thanks for taking a look at the wiki. The timer patch should be complete, as 
long as there is no need for multiple timers per (localID,objectID) pair. I 
could enter it into Mantis if it looks ready to go. The other patch may be 
similar to existing code which is either commented out or not working properly. 
There are comments in various places in SceneGraph and related code to the 
effect of "A dictionary would be nice here". The patch was meant to be an 
example of what may be possible, but not complete or necessarily the most 
efficient placement of the dictionary.

Nice work, Dan, very useful stuff.

Is the scenegraph_dictionary.patch code not already present in EntityManager 
(albeit possibly unused, I've not looked 
closely)?  If not, would it be better incorporated into there and do you plan 
on extending the patch into a complete 
implementation (e.g. localID -> SOP mapping removal as well)?

timer_dictionary.patch on the other hand looks like a complete implementation.  
Is this a patch that could usefully be 
applied in its current state?
