        just a feature that seems like a sensible addition to Guava?


        Before new features get added to Guava, we really want to be sure that it's for a use case
        that actually comes up in the real world. We want to hear the real-world use case so the
        community can discuss and debate whether this feature is actually the *best* way to address
        the real use case, or whether or not a different abstraction might be more appropriate.

 * <p>This class is not intended as a direct analogue of any existing "option" or "maybe" construct
 * from other programming environments, though it may bear some similarities.
 *
 * <p>An instance of this class is serializable if its reference is absent or is a serializable
 * object.
 *

   *
   * <p>For the case of {@link RoundingMode#HALF_EVEN}, this implementation uses the IEEE 754
   * default rounding mode: if the two nearest representable values are equally near, the one with
   * the least significant bit zero is chosen. (In such cases, both of the nearest representable
   * values are even integers; this method returns the one that is a multiple of a greater power of
   * two.)
   *

 * `Function<@Nullable A, @Nullable B>` already had to find a workaround. Still, there is a *ton* of
 * fallout from trying to switch. I would be shocked if the switch would offer benefits to anywhere
 * near enough users to justify the costs.
 *
 * Fortunately, if anyone does want to use a Converter as a `Function<@Nullable A, @Nullable B>`,
 * it's easy to get one: `converter::convert`.
 *

       * that behavior is undefined when the backing map is modified through another API. (It even
       * permits us to throw IllegalStateException. Maybe we should have done that, but we probably
       * shouldn't change now for fear of breaking people.)
