question about mixing integer keys and other key types in a table

[Benoit Germain <bnt.germain@...>]

Hello,

In some tables, I store
 items both at integer index keys, without holes, and at string keys, 
for some other attributes. When iterating with ipairs, I get the 
integer-keyed pairs just fine. But let's imagine that I manage to store in my table entries so that some string key 
hashes to the same value as one of the scalar keys. I know this is an 
implementation detail, but will this move my scalar indexed pair from 
the array part to the hash part of the table, thus creating a hole in the array that 
will break what I expect from ipairs iteration?
