Thats the thing, the amount of things of things you can do with a given bucket is very limited. You can't add entries to any point besides the head (without walking the entire list).
Kinda my point. We already have all the hlist*() interface to deal with such cases. Having something which is evidently the trivial hlist hashtable and advertises as such in the interface can be helpful. I think we need that more than we need anything fancy. Heh, this is a debate about which one is less insignificant. I can see your point. I'd really like to hear what others think on this. Guys, do we want something which is evidently trivial hlist hashtable which can use hlist_*() API directly or do we want something better encapsulated?
