Description

The current implementation of asImmutable returns a simple Collections.unmodifiable.... This only guarantees that no element is added or removed. Nevertheless an element itself can be modified. What do you think about a feature enhancement of asImmutable where you can guard the elements of a collection as well? S.th. like asDeepImmutable could proxy the collection and guards all setter of all elements.

What do you think about it?
