 Currently, when we specify a map in configuration, the names of keys must
 be hardcoded into the spec file, and each one can have different type of
 value.

 But sometimes it is needed to allow any names and have a single type of
 value (while the current simulates something like C++ struct, this would
 look like map<string, something>).

 It could be either new value type (eg. besides having a list and map, we
 could have a dict) or allowing something like name "*", which would allow
 any name.
