Except that _parameter points to the original parameterobejct, not the 
ContextMap.  So _parameter.size and _parameter.keys will refer back to the 
original Map implementation, which hopefully implemented those methods.  
(Though if it didn't, it's not something we can fix)

Would it make more sense to modify the ContextAccessor such that when it does a 
get, it checks to see if _parameter is a Map, and if so, does a get against it? 
 Then we can leave the ContextMap structure alone entirely.

This also passes my unit tests.
