/**
* This is to workaround an issue with Spring.
*
* In spring, if you inject a Map into a contructor, it
* ALWAYS will call entrySet and copy the entries into a new
* map (HashMap). Thus, any "deferred" processing will happen
* immediately. Also, things like the Bus may not be completely
* initialized.
*
* We'll mark some of our Spring things with this interface and
* allow the MapProvider to be injected.
