While I mostly agree with @ppkarwasz, I disagree with migrating away from the library. WRT using APIs in the fluent style, there has been a recent discussion (either in Jira, GitHub, or the mailing list, sorry I can't recall) about normalizing null versus `""` versus `[]` in classes like `StringUtils` but that was a presentation of the issue, not a proposal but compatibility would have to be considered. I do not have specific guidance to give @Abyss-lord on what to add out of thin air, as I do not have a to-do list for new methods and Jira doesn't have tickets for new code to add, IIRC. What Jira does have, on the other hand, are bug reports to process, research, and propose changes. In general, I would say that Lang additions reflect real-world use cases from other libraries and applications that I've dealt with in the past in both an open-source and corporate context.
