------------------------------------------
I can contribute this feature to https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/ if
you'll review it. :)

> [org.springframework.util.ObjectUtils|https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/blob/master/spring-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/util/ObjectUtils.java]
> there's a null-safe [isEmpty
> method|https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/blob/04141dee65ff5e078e2a9137ff7052351f6ab66c/spring-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/util/ObjectUtils.java#L134]
> that checks whether an object is empty based on its type. If the object is a
> string it calls String.isEmpty, if it's a collection it calls
> Collection.isEmpty, etc. I think a similar method would be a really nice
> addition to org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils, as it would allow people
> like me to use it without adding a dependency to Spring or re-implementing
> the method in our code.
