> Generic types such as List<T> and Comparable<T> can be instantiated with value classes as the type arguments.

> JEP 218, Generics over Primitive Types (with revisions), will allow generic classes and methods to specialize field, array, and local variable layouts when parameterized by value class types.

Ok now this is cool! JVM needs more ways to use compile time known value sizes for better memory allocation and optimizations.
