As part of the Library Lambdafication, this patch adds the following default methods to Collections -

Iterable.forEach(Block) Collection.removeAll(Predicate) List.sort(Comparator) List.replaceAll(UnaryOperator) It also provides more efficient implementations of these methods for ArrayList, Vector and CopyOnWriteArrayList. Please review.

Yes!

There's finally a way to sort ArrayList's array in-place. Until now you either had to resort to using arrays or a sub-optimal Collections.sort(List) method.
