I appreciate that you have to be careful when naming new components
in long-established languages/libraries. "ConcurrentBag"
is fairly commonly used outside of Java to indicate
a minimal concurrent collection that supports only add, remove,
contains, and traverse. See for example Net's version.
Still, the unanticipated reaction to the name is good enough
grounds to choose another.
