As the title says.

No real reason other than that it's work and I haven't gotten around to it. Feel free to contribute it.

Unfortunately due to what I think is a bug in the jdk it does not seem to be possible to create a generic implementation that works for all species. So you basically have to do the same thing over and over again.

I filed a bug for it but I don't think it's been addressed
