Paul,
-- I am also hesitating a bit too ... I see some people that I respect do go for the whole enchilada with no regrets. Here is a JS API that requires 4-argument callback.
Jen does have a point about custom defined functional interfaces, they:
- can have more specific argument types, can even be primitive ones (int, boolean, etc...)
- can be documented much better

Jens,I can see your point, about the usability when you get many arguments. Originally I was going to kind of mirror the Java JDK and not go more than 2. Personally, I think it is a lot better to define custom interfaces when possible. To avoid having hundreds of class files I have started making them local to the API classes. I think this helps with readability.The case when the generic functions are useful is when you are prototyping a new API or porting some exsting javascript code. Hristo, what is an actual case where you need 4 or 5 parameters?
