M. Justin commented on GROOVY-5711:
-----------------------------------

Even if it's not the "minus" method, something like "withoutKeys" or something 
would still be useful to me.  In my scripts and Spock tests, often I want a 
copy of a map but with certain removed.  Right now, it's a bit verbose to do 
that manually, and this feels like the type of method Groovy would have.

> add a Map.minus(Collection) method to GDK

> Currently we can do Map.minus(Map) but it would probably be useful to be able 
> to filter a Map based on its keys. If we had Map.minus(Collection) where the 
> Collection parameter represents the set of keys that should be removed this 
> kind of filtering would be trivial.
