------------------------------
> Support flattening of Optionals in flatten/flattenMany
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-11146
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11146
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Paul King
> Assignee: Paul King
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0.0-alpha-1
>
>
> The functional idiom of map/collect then flatten is so common that we
> normally have a shorthand for combining them: flatMap, bind, collectMany.
> We have that for streams (piggybacking on Java) and collections but not
> optionals.
> {code}
> var items = ["1", "2", "foo", "3", "bar"]
> var toInt1 = s -> s.number ? Stream.of(s.toInteger()) : Stream.empty()
> println items.stream().flatMap(toInt1).toList()
> var toInt2 = s -> s.number ? [s.toInteger()] : []
> println items.collectMany(toInt2)
> var toInt3 = s -> s.number ? Optional.of(s.toInteger()) : Optional.empty()
> println items.collect(toInt3).flatten{ it -> it.orElse([]) }
> println items.collect(toInt3).findResults{ it -> it.orElse(null) }
> println items.collect(toInt3).grep()*.get()
> {code}
> This issue will explore options for adding that.
