    Once in `getNameToIdMap` and once when streaming, yeah, but I don't think 
it's that big of an issue to transform the internal form to the 
API/presentation form. The set of tables is relatively small.
    
    An option which wouldn't require it to iterate twice would be to make 
`getNameToIdMap` a generic method, which accepts a `Function` so it can 
transform to the value to the requested form:
    
    ```java
    return Tables.getNameToIdMap(e -> e.canonicalId());
    ```
    
    Tables.java:
    ```java
    public <T> SortedMap<String, T> getNameToIdMap(Function<Table.ID, ? extends 
T> valueConverter) {
        // ...
    }
    ```
