+1 for closing for now. We can revisit it later if we have better use cases :-)

At Apache, I believe the only place with anything related right now would be 
[OODT streaming 
module|https://github.com/apache/oodt/blob/1ae92425ec3e7e0d0f026cbcc142ab17988cd071/streaming/resource/src/main/java/org/apache/oodt/cas/resource/examples/PalindromeUtils.java],
 and it is used just as part of an example.

I think StringUtils would be better place for this method, good to have method 
in toolbox, in future another wrapper on top of this method can create specific 
and more complex usage of palindrome.

>What is the use case for this?

It could be used for [text 
compression|http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0304397508008852].
 However, I suspect it would have to be implemented as the [longest common 
sequence|https://github.com/apache/commons-text/tree/master/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/text]
 similarity that we have (i.e. for any given substring, find all its possible 
palindrome values in the string).

Palindromes and longest common subsequence have use cases in bioinformatics; 
though I don't intend to quickly implement anything (which I agree would be 
pretty trivial).

Instead will read a few papers to confirm that it would be useful for other 
components in ASF (in mind I have only 
[Taverna|https://taverna.incubator.apache.org/introduction/taverna-in-use/bioinformatics]
 so far) as well as external projects. Happy to close and archive the issue 
later if not helpful to any other projects.

What is the use case for this?

Although it should be pretty trivial to implement, I'm not sure it belongs in 
Commons.
