> I guess these must be one of the most wanted features and it should be very simple to implement (as I have done one in 126 lines).
> Most (if not all) of the infrastructure is already there, including an index of all files. And, with some careful coding, the capability to read any of them in any order concurrently was not difficult to add.
> My code uses loads of lambda and reflection stuff, but I am happy to contribute a clean Java 5/6 implementation.
