of BeanIdentifier?
I imagine some custom contexts don't need to be String based. A Map<BeanIdentifier, Object> is potentially faster than a Map<String, Object>, and (IMO) it makes for prettier code. I suppose the latter is my primary motivation.
Maybe I've just been burned too many times by String being used inappropriately.
