.NET 4: Native generic collection support (ISet) ?

Since .NET 4 Microsoft has closed the gap for generic Sets. So there is now native support for generic Sets available:

System.Collections.Generic.ISet

When I tried to use it, FluentNH returned a type cast exception (obviosly Iesi.Collections.ISet is still used internally). What I didn't try yet is to use IEnumerable and then use Systems.Collections.Generic.HashSet (I guess Iesi.Collections.ISet should inherit from IEnumerable...)

My question is, can we expect native generic collection support for sets in the future?

    You can use HashSet with no problems.

    As for when true support will come, that'll depend entirely on when NH supports it.

    Ok fine, thanx! But I can't expose the generic interface right (of course I could expose it seperately and avoid mapping the property)?
