The libraries team added the following methods to java.io and java.nio, 
with discussion on corelibs-dev:
In java.io.BufferedReader:
   Stream<String> lines()
In java.nio.Files, static methods for:
   CloseableStream<Path> list(Path dir) throws IOException;
   CloseableStream<Path> walk(Path start, int maxDepth, 
FileVisitOption... options) throws IOException
   CloseableStream<Path> walk(Path start, FileVisitOption... options) 
throws IOException
   CloseableStream<Path> find(Path start,
                            int maxDepth,
                            BiPredicate<Path, BasicFileAttributes> matcher,
                            FileVisitOption... options)
         throws IOException
   CloseableStream<String> lines(Path path, Charset cs) throws IOException
CloseableStream simply extends Stream and AutoCloseable, making it 
suitable for use with try-with-resources:
public interface CloseableStream<T> extends Stream<T>, AutoCloseable {
     void close();
}
Should we consider moving AutoCloseable up to Stream and friends, and 
get rid of CloseableStream?
