Review comment:
       I don't know, but I guess the answer is no. AFAIK, using order 
preserving maps is a more recent thing (e. g. Google Chrome preserves insertion 
order of JavaScript Objects, which are HashMaps as well. That's also not 
required by the ECMA standards, but it's a neat feature, especially with 
debugging etc.)

   Why not? But that's always a feature, users can't rely on. In fact, it's 
just _nice to have_, However, since `LinkedHashMap`is not much more costly than 
a classic `HashMap` (especially with only few entries), there is no pain with 
using it.
