First few comments, anything related to the soon-to-be legacy interface class should be removed, as we don't want this functionality anymore, secondly anything related to the global_object should be removed, we don't care about the map and edges anymore and want to remove it. The existence of the old base_collection is the only reason these features haven't been removed already . . .
