No.

yes, it should be used with the whole object that is a member in the
MagmaCollection.  Unfortunately, I don't know of any easy way other
than you must find a way to #noteOldKeysFor:
the-object-which-is-*indexed-by*-the-lexical term.

I hope there are at least one thousand different classification
members for the index, otherwise you may end up with a lot of
hash-collisions in the Magma index, reducing performance..

Regards,
