A PHP 5.3.3+ Collection implementation that takes inspiration from multiple sources

Every PHP framework out there defines it's own Collection-style class, and each has it's own set of nice features. The point of this class was to bring together as many of those collections as possible into a single class so I could take advantage of the genius of others while adding my own flair.
