I want scope. I want automatic timeouts. I want listeners. :-) 

But yes, a Map (or better yet: A subset of a map, you don't want
everything from the Map interface or you end up with a Context object
that must be implemented with a map. This is not a map) points in the
right direction.

 is a large enough problem with the Open Source movement that it
