Map accessors have been improved in 5.4 but there are still at least a half dozen cases that are broken.  They were basically unusable in 5.2.

Create a Map<KeyEnum, ValueEnum> on an object and try to access it.

In 5.2 you can not access directly via the map object.
In 5.4 you can access if KeyEnum was an externally defined enum but inner static KeyEnum will cause errors.

Created a simple project (extension of hello world Message example to demonstrate.  Note that each issue I found caused the rules file to not compile so I commented out all the error lines but as they are fixed they could be commented back in to test regressions. 

I will try to attach files after creating this issue but if I find I do not have sufficient JIRA permissions to add the files I will add the text as comments.
