    Description

      The Commons Text component contains utilities that overlap with class RandomStringUtils in [Lang].

      Duplication could be avoided by moving possibly missing functionality from [Lang] to [Text]. The additional bonus is that [Text] allows for choosing the source of randomness, while [Lang] uses the (weak and slow) java.util.Random class.
