If you plan in creating a start of purely functional
collections library then I suggest you to also take a look at
Clojure and various Haskell collections. Clojure is very based
on persistent purely functional data structures, used in modern
ways. And in the Haskell tribe there are some very smart
persons that have worked on those things for fifteen years. So
spending one extra week reading and looking at those two worlds
may help you a lot later, and give you many good/better ideas.
