Why no methods like toList() / toMutableList() / toSet() / toMutableSet() on Java Collection and Stream interfaces ?

[Tobias Gierke]

Hi,

Thanks for the pointer ! Is there still no way for mere mortals (read: 
non-OpenJDK committers) to comment or vote on issues ? I couldn't find 
any "create account" button and a quick Google search turned up a 
StackOverflow post from 2015 
(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29379425/where-to-report-issues-of-openjdk-when-youre-not-a-openjdk-developer) 
that basically says "Not possible".

Cheers,
Tobias
