That was my plan with a ListMap. It's a List, it's a Map, it's a List...
It seemed to have everything going for it except reality. List, Map 
and Iterator are all clashing interfaces due to the remove method:

Map
    public abstract java.lang.Object remove(java.lang.Object); 

List
    public abstract boolean remove(java.lang.Object); 

Iterator
    public abstract void remove();


I was grumbling for days.
