Hi all,

I'm looking at the supportedFormats added by the converters in core.  I note a 
lot of inconsistency in the text with most converters adding types with <> 
around them.  For instance the LongConverter adds "<long>" but the 
ShortConverter adds "short".  The various date and duration converters add 
examples with no <> in that same spot, and BigDecimal has a type and an arrow 
and some other information "<bigDecimal> -> new BigDecimal(String)".   Is there 
a consistent pattern I can throw into tests?  I looked around at the 
documentation but while the list of supportedFormats is in there, there's not 
much info about what these strings are supposed to mean to the reader including 
the difference between a type in <> and one that is not.
