well, removing it entirely would mean one of the following:
  * copy/paste into 3 denominator projects
  * add a gson dependency to denominator core
  * make a new project that houses only this file in denominator
  * fork gson :)

each sucks a little in different ways.  There are google gson posts about this issue, and it only affects `Map<String, Object>`.

I'm inclined to make it easy and leave it here, forgiving the slight lack of precision.
