First I'll see how expensive the insert/seek operation on an array is, and if proven bad I'll do exactly that. :) It just seemed like a hashmap with internal pointer would have at least a way to set the pointer by key, but I may have to go all OO on 'im to make it snappy enough. | |

@Alexander: if a built-in data structure doesn't meet your needs, your best bet is to implement your own. With an event queue class, you can implement the Iterator and ArrayAccess interfaces. It will function as an array, but will give you greater control over positioning. You can even add methods to get and set the position (possibly using overloading).
