I would like a standard class that implements the Map interface
and refers to its values only through SoftReferences. Such a beast
would provide a simple memory-sensitive cache which could be very
useful in a variety of applications. Also, note how this class
would naturally complement the existing WeakHashMap class (which
stores its keys using WeakReferences and its values using strong
references).
