I agree that if what he’s doing is changing values in the dictionary then he’s 
not going to get a change notification for the dictionary. I just read his 
message again and I can’t read it as saying anything else than the entire 
dictionary is being replaced, perhaps it’s just how I read it. I think we need 
some clarification here about what’s really getting changed.
