Currently, common.io provides minimal support for NIO Channels, ByteBuffers, etc. The methods we do have have very few usages internally. Based on that, and the fact that there haven't really been any requests for more support, we're considering dropping the methods we're currently providing until it's apparent that we need to provide more NIO support and what the best way to provide that is.
If we don't drop support for this, we should instead try to provide better support. Since we don't seem to have much internal need for it, we need feedback from Guava users to see if this would actually be useful.

Years ago, when NIO was new, I spent a lot of time trying to use them. At the time (Win NT was alive) there were too many implementation specific details that broke "write once". So I gave up, and over the past 10 or so years of daily professional Java development, I haven't gone back.
So while I may not be typical user, dropping them is fine with me.
