Collection stream() and parallel()

[Paul Benedict]

Brian, can I post my suggestion here or must I subscribe to
lambda-libs-spec-observers at openjdk.java.net?

PS: The problem with ALL observers list is that they are totally
worthless, in my opinion, because they all warn "EG members are under
no obligation to follow the traffic on this list". If I post there, it
sounds like no one will read them to reply -- so I feel I am writing
into a black hole.
