Description

org.apache.velocity.context.AbstractContext.internalRemove(Object key) uses an
argument type of java.lang.Object for the key. This is inconsistent with other
methods (internalGet, internalPut, internalContainsKey), which all use a type
of java.lang.String for the key.

Of course, this will probably require deprecating it, but maybe there's still
time to fix it, assuming few users have implemented their own.
