I too like the ComparatorUtils concept outlined below.
However, we might
want to consider whether the method names are nullFirst(Comparator) or
nullFirstComparator(Comparator) etc. I raise this because

PredicateUtils
uses the latter at the moment, and it would be nice to be

Comparator API only allows for returning a -1, 0, or +1.
But thanks for the support for the option of sorting nulls
to the bottom.
