---Webrev ---
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/6910473/webrev.4/

This is more of a "ping" on a thread which was previously labelled "RFC."

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-October/022431.html

and for which there is one apparent approval

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-October/022229.html

As the CCC request for this is now in its final, almost (but not quite) approved state, it would be good either to definitely approve the webrev or raise objections as to why it should not be approved.

Thanks,

Brian
