I don't think so. I'm in favour of "small" components. Take into account that Commons Lang is probably less stable than "FastMath": CL's top-level package name is now "lang3" whereas this functionality would be located in a package whose name would never change. Also, since the JDK itself is going to be "modular", it is a bit odd to go in the opposite direction.
