Is there a proper method of checking whether a named collection already
exists in a database? I tried calling
DB.getHashMap("name_that_doesnt_exist") thinking it might return null if I
haven't previously called DB.createHashMap("name_that_doesnt_exist").
Instead, the database throws an IllegalArgumentException. Is/Will there be
a way to check this other than catching the exception?

Sorry if this isn't really an "issue", I couldn't find a mailing list so I
posted here.

Fixed, getXXX now returns null if collection was not found.
