It is certainly the case that the features of that class work as described; the bug is in the fact that there is no way (except object rape) to get the count of the in-memory-filtered objects.

Yep, I agree. Except for the terminology used. "Missing features" are not bugs. They are simply "Missing features."

Bertrand Meyer (OOSC, 2nd Ed, p 347) would call it an error ("a wrong decision made during the development of a... system"), but "bug" can mean error, defect ("a property of a... system that may cause [it] to depart from its intended behaviour") or fault ("the event of a... system departing from its intended behaviour...").


Well, according to Meyer, anyway...
