Though contents of array elements can be the internal form of numbers 
(8-byte float), the keys are strings.  If you use numbers as keys, they 
are converted to strings using the numberFormat local property.  
However, keys and contents-as-strings do not have constraints on the 
characters, they can be any byte sequence.
