Stephen Colebourne commented on LANG-588:
-----------------------------------------

I have no specific requirement for a List. However I would advise against an 
Iterable, simply because its not that widely accepted in other APIs.

The ability to merge pairs into a single list will be a requested feature I 
suspect.

As I said, I'm strongly against caching the hash code - premature optimisation 
and unsafe with mutable classes.

> [lang] is the perfect place to provide a basic typed Pair class.  I have

> MatchedPair<T> extends Pair<T, T> as well.
