IntStream and collect

[Brian Goetz]

If we did that, I suspect that about 5 minutes later, you'd find you 
still need classes like IntArrayList, IntIntHashMap, etc, to get 
anywhere.  We prototyped a Collector.OfInt and found there were almost 
no implementations to be offered by the JDK.  Since the JDK options 
you've got mean boxing anyway, a Collector.OfInt would only push the 
boxing one level down.
