Hi. 
I have a dirty stupid solution:
index you items with progressive numbers.

I've attached an example. 

Also, if you need your keys to be more explicit that just a number, you could 
prepend your descriptive key with a progressive number. 

Example:

columnview1.add(columnview1.count & " " & "descriptive_key", "here_item") 

so you always know that the first part of ColumnView1.Current.Key is 
the row number.

I've attached a little example.
