Sounds reasonable, we sure be sure to doc that the list is not mutable
too.

If the list should not be mutable, then it makes more sense to return
an Iterator (or ListIterator as mentioned), else someone could

using the add/remove methods.
If its gonna be immutable then we could just return a
Collections.unmodifiableList(list); Then folks can use the full List
API (bar modifications).
Also if we ever decide to allow a mutable List later on its not a
change to the API :)
