Why HashSet<T> does not implement IReadOnlyCollection<T>?

Question

I've just found that .NET Fx now has 3 useful interfaces:

1. IReadOnlyCollection<T>
2. IReadOnlyList<T>
3. IReadOnlyDictionary<K,V>

And I'm bit confused why HashSet<T> do not implement IReadOnlyCollection<T>? Are there any reasons, or Microsoft just forgot about sets again?

UPD

After two-hours googling I've found that there are many collections in BCL which has .Count property but do not implement IReadOnlyCollection<T> interface.

I've found this post http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/netfxbcl/thread/b4fb991a-3f5c-4923-93d4-7cd5c004f859 and the answer by Immo Landwerth where he've said following

Will other collections besides List<> and Dictionary<> be updated to support these interfaces?

Absolutely. In fact, all of our built-in collection types already implement IReadOnlyList<> and IReadOnlyDictionary<>. This means, you can directly pass an instance of List, T[] or Dictionary<> to an API that takes an IReadOnly-version of it.

Answer 1

In version 4.5 of the framework, HashSet<T> does not implement IReadOnlyCollection<out T>.

This omission was resolved in version 4.6 of the framework (released almost 12 months after the above question was asked).

These corrections are not limited to HashSet<T>, other collections such as Stack<T> and Queue<T> have received these improvements.

Speculation on the reason for any omission is moot. It may be oversight or time pressure but frankly, it is of little consequence. I suspect that even direct input from the Microsoft Development Team would be somewhat subjective, even if we enjoy associated anecdotes.
