    +/**
    + * Holds metadata about app-specific types stored in LevelDB. Serves as a 
cache for data collected
    + * via reflection, to make it cheaper to access it multiple times.
    + *
    + * <p>
    + * The hierarchy of keys stored in LevelDB looks roughly like the 
following. This hierarchy ensures
    + * that iteration over indices is easy, and that updating values in the 
store is not overly
    + * expensive. Of note, indices choose using more disk space (one value per 
key) instead of keeping
    + * lists of pointers, which would be more expensive to update at runtime.
    + * </p>
    + *
    + * <p>
    + * Indentation defines when a sub-key lives under a parent key. In 
LevelDB, this means the full
    + * key would be the concatenation of everything up to that point in the 
hierarchy, with each
    + * component separated by a NULL byte.

    + * Entity data (either the entity's natural key or a copy of the data) is 
stored in all keys
    + * that end with "+<something>". A count of all objects that match a 
particular top-level index
    + * value is kept at the end marker ("-<something>"). A count is also kept 
at the natural index's end
    + * marker, to make it easy to retrieve the number of all elements of a 
particular type.
    + * </p>
    + *
    + * <p>
    + * To illustrate, given a type "Foo", with a natural index and a second 
index called "bar", you'd
    + * have these keys and values in the store for two instances, one with 
natural key "key1" and the
    + * other "key2", both with value "yes" for "bar":
    + * </p>
    + *
    + * <pre>
    + * Foo __main__ +key1   [data for instance 1]
    + * Foo __main__ +key2   [data for instance 2]
    + * Foo __main__ -       [count of all Foo]
    + * Foo bar +yes +key1   [instance 1 key or data, depending on index type]

    since `key1` is already in key, why we still need to put `key` in the value 
region?
