/* The <KeyedCollecting> protocol inherits from the <Collecting> protocol.
The <KeyedCollecting> protocol defines the interface to a
collection of elements that are accessible by a key, where the key is
some unique element. Pairs of (key element, content element) may be
added, removed and replaced. The keys and contents may be tested,
enumerated and copied.
