    Perhaps you think, I go too far - but I'm not doing that. I don't use
    that as an API replacement, I use it only for stuff, that is used
    ONLY in this one component. Like, when I calculate a lot of stuff for
    a "dashboard" page or something I'll might end up with lots of Number
    and String objects I want to show and often I put them into the dict.
    But they are not used anywhere outside and I don't go so far to push
    values from outside into that dictionary (like overriding
    takeValueForKey and valueForKey and putting stuff in there or so) ...
