Well, that *was* 17 years ago as a small update to sometihng I think we did in '01 or thereabouts. The original intent was to make SharedPool be the only way to do  shared pools but we wimped out on TextConstants. And indeed that still needs solving, so a nice project for somebody to play with?

If we had completed the project then there would be no need to have any polymorphism to Dictionary and there would be no problem.

I'm perfectly ok with that if you prefer; this isn't a huge issue
