According to the javadoc, http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html is a Hashtable[Object, Object], yet the conversion tries to view it as a Map[String, String]

  implicit def propertiesAsScalaMapConverter(p: ju.Properties): AsScala[mutable.Map[String, String]] =
    new AsScala(propertiesAsScalaMap(p))

I think Sun just messed up generifying that class. Properties consists only of (String, String) pairs as far as I know.

Noone prevents anyone from putting objects there: scala/scala#2505, so I guess we should be prepared.

"Because Properties inherits from Hashtable, the put and putAll methods can be applied to a Properties object. Their use is strongly discouraged as they allow the caller to insert entries whose keys or values are not Strings. The setProperty method should be used instead. If the store or save method is called on a "compromised" Properties object that contains a non-String key or value, the call will fail. Similarly, the call to the propertyNames or list method will fail if it is called on a "compromised" Properties object that contains a non-String key."
