I wish NSDictionary (NSMutableDictionary actually) could handle
arbitrary mappings of one type of object to another, without copying
the keys.  A string makes a good key most of the time but what about
the case where you want to do the reverse mapping, to find the string
which you have associated with a particular object?  I'm accustomed to
things like Qt and Java where hashtables can contain anything for both
key and value.  Is there an alternative which does work that way?  I
didn't try CFDictionary yet; is that appropriate for an iPhone app?
