Sorry for a *way late* reply.
There isn't a reason why a protocol for a program map to enumerate
itself couldn't be constructed, probably invoking the program map
without an argument, and receiving an enumeration on stdout; either
null- or LF-separated.
Obviously not all program maps will be capable of being enumerated, but
that's true for any map set.
