> The standard iterator for queues like PriorityQueue don't iterate according to priority order. You have to use poll (or drainTo for blocking queues) to get the elements in priority order. It would be useful to have a "drain()" or "elements()" method to get a list of all the elements that successive calls to poll would return. The intention would be that the queue was drained upon completion of the call.
