Corresponding source code
Currently each collection has different creation features; rightly so because each has its own peculiarity.
Many times tought a lazy developer would like to just create an empty collection, without thinking about the details of creation and which kind of collection is actually used.
I perfectly know that the right thing to do is having a factory.
Those coming from other "high-level", loosely-typed languages would love this. They will accept to define the type somewhere, but I'm pretty sure that they will hate to change all the creation commands anytime they switch from an ARRAY to a LINKED_LIST.
I propose to add "default_create" to the creation features of all collections, with "reasonable defaults" for fast hacks...
