Sure, it just would be handy the JDK provided this rather than users rewriting the same utility class. For example, having: OutputStream.write(ByteBuffer) InputStream.read(ByteBuffer) avoiding intermediate copies to byte[] but also: ByteBufferInputStream.offer(ByteBuffer b, boolean last) to feed ByteBuffers to the InputStream and be able to read them via normal byte[]. Something along these lines.
