Well, let's imagine we need to find 50 URIs in the pool of 200. How many 
strcmps is that?

Extreme example, I know. But if it's going to be used as generic 
URI-to-int translation (not just event type-related), then who knows.

Why decide to use something which has O(M*N) and not O(M*log(N)) (or 
even O(M)) average complexity, if the difference in amount of work for 
plugin developers is hardly noticable?
