adding Predicate usage to BusinessListBase and ReadOnlyListBase

hi, i just read about Predicate (http://developer.coreweb.com/articles/Default12.aspx)

i think it would be great if  BusinessListBase and ReadOnlyListBase will implement the same methods as System.Collections.Generic.List<T>  class implements.

for example:

public C Find(Predicate<C> match) { if (match == null) { throw new ArgumentNullException("match"); } for (int index = 0; index < base.Count; index++) { if (match(base[index])) { return base[index]; } } return default(C); } and this is a nice way of calling it. PersonList persons = PersonList.GetAllPersons()} Person me = persons.Find                      (                         delegate(Person p)                         {                            return p.Name == "Tamir"                         }                      )

Yes, that seems like a nice idea for a future version.
