    This index is a universal, fully-ordered, strictly causal identifier

    3. A get_index() method, which provides a new index on each call, always
    higher than all previous indexes.
    
    CausalObjects are responsible for including index information in the
    return value of get_history, and processing index information in add_history.

    CausalDict is a distributed version of a Dict (hash table).  All users keep
    a copy of the entire table, so this is not a "Distributed Hash Table"
    according to the terminology of the field.
    
    CausalDict permits all Dict operations, including removing keys and
    modifying the value of existing keys.  This would not be possible using an
    Unordered approach, because two value assignments to the same key could
    arrive in different orders for different users, leaving them in different
    states at quiescence.
    
    To solve this problem, every assignment and removal is given a monotonically
    increasing unique index, and whenever there is a conflict, the higher-index
    operation wins.
    
    One side effect of this design is that deleted keys cannot be forgotten. If
    an assignment operation is received whose index is lower than
    the deletion's, then that assignment is considered obsolete and must not be
    executed.
    
    To provide a mechanism for reducing memory usage, the clear() method has
    been interpreted to remove not only all entries received so far, but also
    all entries that will ever be received with index less than the current
    index.
