In relation to COLLECTIONS-362, I would make CollectionUtils.filterOut() return a boolean indicating whether the Collection as modified as a result of the call.

Here are some tests:

- test 1:
 List l = new ArrayList();
 l.add("test");
 assertTrue( CollectionUtils.filterOut(l, TruePredicate.getInstance()) );
 assertTrue(l.isEmpty());

- test 2:
 List l = new ArrayList();
 l.add("test");
 assertFalse( CollectionUtils.filterOut(l, FalsePredicate.getInstance()) );
 assertEquals(1, l.size());

> Similarly to CollectionUtils.selectRejected() which is equivalent to CollectionUtils.select()  with using the NotPredicate, it would be nice to have CollectionUtils.filterOut() which would be equivalent to CollectionUtils.filter()  with using the NotPredicate.
> I use filterOut() more often than filter().
