    You can remove the cast here as you've done in the other places.

> The execute methods of the function service Execution class returns a 
> ResultCollector with wildcards for the type.
> {code}  
> public ResultCollector<?, ?> execute(
>       Function function) throws FunctionException;
> {code}
> Wildcards are supposed to be used in APIs where the type doesn't matter, for 
> example counting the elements in a list. By returning a ResultCollector with 
> wildcards, we're essentially forcing the user to cast the result collector.
> At a minimum they should be able to pick the type of result collector
> {code}
>   public <T,S> ResultCollector<T, S> execute(
>       Function function) throws FunctionException;
> {code}
> But maybe it would make more sense to parameterize Execution itself. Then the 
> compiler could ensure that the types used by withCollector and the types used 
> by execute match.
