suggestion to add Tuple abstractions @ http://javatuple.com

[Pangea]

I am not sure if this is the right forum (I couldnt find one in
guvava) but may I suggest that the Tuples library @ http://javatuple.com
is a right candidate for adding it to the guava or collections
project...

Looks interesting even though i can't remember a need for something like
a tuple. But maybe i just dont remember.

Advantages
1) no need to create value objects for presentation pruposes...
2)also helps in returning multiple values from a function

This has been discussed before (search the issues).

Regarding the tuple library you suggest: I understand that the way it
was implemented resulted in maximum code reuse, but
"tuple.rest.rest.rest.rest.rest.rest.rest.rest.rest.first" looks...
not healthy.

And honestly, I have my own tuple classes, and I rarely need anything
larger than Pair. For bigger things it is more readable to create a
proper class.
