I suppose you save lots of String copies but.... presumably if the 
String implementation really is 'smart' ( which iirc it is ) then it 
only points to the existing string and doesn't actually create a 'new' 
copy of that. I wonder why the orig implementation didn't store objects 
( or didn't List ever support that ) or was it influenced by a heap vs 
stack concern ( that probably is irrelevant these days ) Anyway, won't 
do any harm leaving it as it is or perhaps someone will go the extra 
step and change it.
