This was discussed on the EG list today. The goal here was to separate the "for end users" factories from the "for library writers" factories. We found that people looking for "how do I make a stream" were getting confused by the low-level spliterator-oriented stuff, concluding "I guess I have to make a spliterator", and going off unhappy. The name was chosen to mildly suggest "not much of interest to general users in here".

Brian, here's my opinion on the naming after breaking up Streams into separate classes. Support is a synonym for utilities, really, and that now contains just all creation code. What's in Streams is utility methods. Thus I propose this rename to you: Streams --> StreamUtils StreamSupport --> StreamFactoryUtils
