Why do you not want to expose the ByteArrayInputStream(in, offset, length)
constructor signature as part of the FilterInputStream constructor for
COSFilterInputStream, and getSignedContent?
{quote}
Because I only add something to the API when I think it is useful. My
impression is that your wish is based on a misunderstanding how
{{getSignedContent()}} and {{COSFilterInputStream()}} work, so I'd prefer that
you just correct your application code (if I'm right). It is true that adding
to the API here doesn't hurt or break anything. But why add something that
doesn't have a use case? People might get wrong ideas on how to use it.
