After some more thought, I'm not sure whether this should be a concern
or not. Since jmap's purpose is to wrap Clojure maps for passing to
Java APIs, I'm not sure when it will be necessary to compare jmaps to
Clojure maps. In the abstract, it would be nice if they could be
compared for equality, but I'm not sure how important this is in
practice.
