Is there a good way of marshalling a Dictionary<string, string> over COM interop? Ideas so far include tokenising each KeyPair to an array of strings which can be marshalled as a SafeArray, or having two string arrays containing keys and values.

I have a dictionary: {'key1':1, 'key2':2, 'key3':3} I need to pass a sub-set of that dictionary to third-party code.
