Description

There is a Model.of(T object), but in Guava style, I'd like to see a Model.of() which would basically do the same thing as the default constructor (and in fact just delegate to it) but would give the developer the benefit of generic type inference:

	public static <T extends Serializable> Model<T> of()
	{
		return new Model<T>();
	}

This is especially useful for long generic types:

        IModel<Collection<? extends MyModelObject>> myModel = new Model<Collection<? extends MyModelObject>>();
        IModel<Collection<? extends MyModelObject>> myModel = Model.of();
