      //   group. The corresponding code can be hard to analyse and adds
      //   many additional unnecessary tests for regular tags.
      // * the second strategy consists in waiting for trouble, that shall

 * \brief Build a \ref TagDocEntryHT (i.e. a std::map<>) from the current

 *
 *        The structure used by a Document (through \ref ElementSet),
 *        in order to hold the parsed entries of a Dicom header, is a recursive
 *        one. This is due to the fact that the sequences (when present)
 *        can be nested. Additionaly, the sequence items (represented in
 *        gdcm as \ref SQItem) add an extra complexity to the data
 *        structure. Hence, a gdcm user whishing to visit all the entries of
 *        a Dicom header will need to dig in the gdcm internals (which
 *        implies exposing all the internal data structures to the API).
 *        In order to avoid this burden to the user, \ref BuildFlatHashTable
 *        recursively builds a temporary hash table, which holds all the
 *        Dicom entries in a flat structure (a \ref TagDocEntryHT i.e. a
 *        std::map<>).
 * \warning Of course there is NO integrity constrain between the 
 *        returned \ref TagDocEntryHT and the \ref ElementSet used
 *        to build it. Hence if the underlying \ref ElementSet is
 *        altered, then it is the caller responsability to invoke 
 *        \ref BuildFlatHashTable again...
