That was basically my question, protocols are designed for this but
ILookup isn't a protocol.  Is it possible to make ILookup into a
protocol?  I haven't looked at the java code much at all, but I might
take a stab at creating a patch it that seems possible.

Converting java.util.Properties into a map isn't hard, but converting
java objects to native maps is extreamly common (bean, reflect, ring,
etc...) and perhaps unnecessary in many situations if one could just
extend an existing java type with ILookup so that if it looks like a
duck, its a duck.
