I'd like to use a CALayer object as a key in a dictionary. The reason is that 
when my app detects a hit in a layer, I need to quickly determine which object 
I've associated with it. Since I can't store a reference to an arbitrary object 
in the CALayer, a dictionary seems to be the most expedient way to do that.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to add my layer as the key (it fails with 
"-[CALayer copyWithZone:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x50132a0"). 
It's really pretty handy to be able to use any object as a key, why is this not 
the case in Obj-C?

TIA,
Rick
