Should Java Have an is null construct?
To check against `null` we generally do `if (object == null)`. In stead, would it be nicer to have 

    if ((object is null) {
       // Do something
    }

Or

    if ((object is not null) {
       // Do something
    }
    
It would be more intuitive, i.e. reads more like english.
