//
// For example, in a very traditional, graphd-style graph, these are int64s
// (guids of the primitives). In a very direct sort of graph, these could be
// pointers to structs, or merely triples, or whatever works best for the
// backing store.
//
// These must be comparable, ie, not arrays or maps, as they may be used as keys
// for maps.
