Hi,I have raised an enhancement request (Incident Report 913453) about adding some convenience methods to the Stream interface that collect the stream and Pallavi Sonal asked me to start a thread here about that. More than 50% of our Stream collect calls use Collectors.toList() or Collectors.toSet() as arguments so I think it would be very handy if the Stream interface had default collectToList and collectToList and collectToMap methods. The advantages are: it would be easier to use code completion in IDEs. There are lot of classes starting with Collect so finding the Collectors class is a bit of a pain. one less method call in what is usually a long chain of calls.
