Let's cross our fingers.

I understand your viewpoint and I'm not arguing against it. If MapStack 
implements Map, then it should follow the Map contract - from a Java 
developer's viewpoint.

My concern is for the OFBiz user who is writing a simple method, and they 
expect their changes to local variables to be local - not global. The OFBiz 
user is not aware of - or concerned with - a "Map contract."
