Mapping a protobuf type to a SoyMap type

[o...@fleaflicker.com]

Hi,

It looks like mapping a protobuf type a SoyMap type is currently disabled even though FieldInterpreter#getMapType appears to support it:

* Protos#hasJsMapKey always returns false 

* Protos#getJsMapKeyFieldName always returns null 

Is this deliberate or should there be a way to use proto3 maps to represent SoyMap data?

Thank you, -Ori

It is deliberate.  

the js backend for soy cannot currently support proto3 maps,  there have been some design proposals internally but the major issue is that proto3 maps in js are incompatible with the current map<> type in soy
