Only thing I’m missing with Flow is the ability to add to a flow that has a terminal operator running

[octylFractal]

why can't you just make the source take from a Channel or something?

[serebit]

Could do, but wouldn’t that defeat the point of a cold stream by stapling a cold stream onto a hot one?

[octylFractal]

you can do the same thing with a flow

[octylFractal]

but you can't "add" to that

[octylFractal]

and really, a Channel that's constructed manually isn't really a producer

[serebit]

I did have the idea of using a list whose iterator will update with elements added during iteration, and then creating a flow out of that list

[octylFractal]

that's essentially what I'm suggesting, but with the thread-safe Channel mechanism
