Over in SOLR-2288, rmuir made some good points about locking down the NamedList
API to protect people...

I looked at your patch, and personally I think NamedList should really be
type-safe.
If users want to use it in a type-unsafe way, thats fine, but *the container
itself shouldn't be List<Object>*.

Separately, i just want to say the following about NamedList:
All uses of this API should really be reviewed. I'm quite aware that it warns
you about the fact that its slow for certain operations,
but in my opinion these *slow operations such as get(String, int) should be
deprecated and removed*.
Any users that are using NamedList in this way, especially in loops, are very
likely using the wrong datastructure.
