 * Adds key-value pair listing capability to {@link TemplateHashModelEx}. While in many cases that can also be achieved
 * with {@link #keys()} and then {@link #get(String)}, that has some problems. One is that {@link #get(String)} only
 * accepts string keys, while {@link #keys()} can return non-string keys too. The other is that calling {@link #keys()}
 * and then {@link #get(String)} for each key can be slower than listing the key-value pairs in one go.
