I agree, it sounds like James is singing from the same hymn sheet too,
which is good.
Hopefully this might get a bit easier with the next version.
I would also like to add that I don't think Collections make a big
difference to what I am proposing.
Still, the feel on the list last time we discussed this was "let's
change"
(rather enthusiastically as I recall).

Hi, Nic:
I believe we actually are talking about the same thing -- on
rereading
my post I realized it's ambiguous. I'm not proposing one huge map
object
for everything. I'd like to see different objects for parameters,
cookies, just like now, but to have all the different mapping
objects
conform to a single interface. I think this is pretty much what
you're
proposing...
