Blake2 and other hashes are most welcome.
As for HashMap you are completely correct: there are many different types of maps that are needed. Concurrent maps, insertion ordered maps etc. And even variations of the small things: are keys copied or not!
I talked about this on a stream recently, how the standard library is in need of a lot of additional Maps, Sets and Lists.
So if you’re interested in contributing then you’re very welcome to do so.

Yeah, or if duplicates are allowed or not, initial size, load factor, and so forth.
