I used to have them everywhere in JBC and IMO it made the internal
code very inflexible as everything needed to be parameterized in very
unnecessary ways.
It's more of a chore than inflexibility, because the types must match anyway,
generics or not. But the declarations spread like a wildfire. Give me [more]
type inference and type aliases and I'm almost happy :) Or maybe it's better
to switch to Scala.

In future it is something we may make public. But needs some more
thought before it is made public, as you can imagine. :)
I can see you changed some things already (and the TreeCache.getCache()
thing). Unfortunately currently I have some other things to do than porting to
Infinispan, but I'll get back to it some day :)
