I suspect my thoughts were this: the user API should require/expect
unique keys (hence get-by-value) but the low level stuff should be able
to preserve (erroneous) redundant keys when loading/saving a *.pcb file.
Making load/store git friendly is a goal in pcb.

I'd have to look at the code in detail to refresh my memory.
