Not really:
Set set = new HashSet ();
assertTrue( !set.contains(null) );
set.add( null );
assertTrue( set.contains(null) );
Map map = new HashMap ();
assertTrue( !map.containsKey(null) );
assertTrue( map.get(null) == null );
map.put( null, null );
assertTrue( map.containsKey(null) );
assertTrue( map.get(null) == null );
get() will still give you null, but containsKey will return true.
