is this specifically useful though?

Well, retrieving the data or keys would also involve the interceptor stack and this is just a convenience atop that.  But more than that, I'm doing it to get it in to the API.  We can optimise and improve on this later, but at worst it will have the same overhead as doing getKeys().size()
