Redesigning collections

A redesign of the standard library is on the roadmap for one of the
next Scala versions (could be as early as 2.13). So I think now is the
time to start thinking about what we want to change, in particular in
what concerns collections!

Collection libraries have to address at the same time many criteria;
it usually makes little sense to consider individual changes in
isolation. To make progress, I propose to embark on a set of strawman
proposals that are of manageable size yet can illustrate key aspects
of potential collection designs. More details are found here:

I'd be happy to see

 - concrete implementations of the proposed API
 - discussions how we should change or flesh out the API

Cheers

 - Martin
