should. 

TFPGMap seems to inherit its original sin: as long as it's a container that
implements key-value based storage, then it's a map. And there it is,
TFPGMap is created as a descendant of TFPSMap which in turn is a descendant
of TFPSList. The last one is the source of Sort/IndexOf/whatever that
normally doesn't apply to map containers. Sometimes I find it useful,
though. So I don't really have a problem with it.
