code is simpler, but if you look at it will eventually add inconsistencies. 
such that getEntries returns a iterator over resources which represent entries 
in collection. So, for simple entries, I actually can not return the entries.
That is the reason why I didn't try to do that optimization.

> Creating a collection of resources has been a use case for a while and there 
> has been no inherent support in SLING for the same.
> This proposal is to add a ResourceCollection interface and implementation 
> that allows creation of collection of resources. 
> Collection is a simple list of members, where each member contains path of 
> resource it refers to. In future, we might need to store additional 
> information with the member, hence following structure is proposed
> N: resourceCollection (nt:unstructured)
>         + P: sling:resourceType
>         + N : members (nt:unstructured)
>             + N: member_res1  > nt:unstructured
>                 + P: path > string, reference to actual resource
>             + N: member_res2  > nt:unstructured
>                 + P: path > string, reference to actual resource
