Ah, of course ... thanks Rahul !

This exposes a problem with the Javascript evaluator though. The
Javascript engine (both JDK and JSR223) isn't able to apply the []
operator to a HashMap because its a Java object rather than a Javascript
object (using _eventdatamap.get('event.name') works fine).

Will file a bug...
