    MappedCollections represent collections of objects that are indirectly indexed by names.

    There are really two collections involved: domain and a map.  The map maps

    between external names and indices into domain, which contains the

    real association.  In order to work properly, the domain and map objects must

    be instances of a subclass of SequenceableCollection or Dictionary.
