> Atlas currently lets you define map types as having an arbitrary type for the key and the value.  A type with map attribute with a non-string key can be registered without any problem.  However, if you use anything other than a string as the key type and try to store a value in the map type you get an exception.  Atlas should either correctly handle non-string keys or throw an exception when trying to register a type with a map attribute that uses a non-string key type.
> In our case, we created a type with an attribute of type map<byte,byte> without any error.  However, storing entities with this attribute set fails with the following exception:
>  java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Byte incompatible with java.lang.String
