+ * Extremely simple and naive implementation of a map.
+ * The map is simple but it's optimized for particular constraints that we have
+ * here.
+ *
+ * A regular map implementation (e.g. `std::unordered_map`) has some basic
+ * performance guarantees like constant average insertion and lookup complexity.
+ * This is nice, but it's *average* complexity measured on a non-trivial amount
+ * of data. The regular map is a very complex data structure that using hashing,
+ * buckets, multiple comprising operations, multiple allocations and so on.
+ *
+ * In our particular case, we need a map for `int` to `void *` with a dozen
+ * values. In these conditions, nothing can beat a naive implementation using a
+ * stack-allocated vector. And this implementation is exactly this: no
+ * allocation, no hashing, no complex branching, no buckets, no iterators, no
+ * rehashing, no other guarantees. It's crazy limited, unsafe, and performant on
+ * a trivial amount of data.
+ *
+ * Besides that, we also need to optimize for insertion performance (the case
+ * where a bunch of views appears on the screen first time); in this
+ * implementation, this is as performant as vector `push_back`.
