Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-1524:
--------------------------------------------------
2) can we include typePriorities() and typePriorities(boolean)? I think in some
cases it may be more convenient to pass a boolean then to change to code flow
to exclude this call.
4) I'm for special casing that. We could ask people on the list, but I never
had anybody complaining about this behavior. A builder like "includeContext()"
or "includeOrigin()" could be added to disable this special case.
5) how about using skip(int) to handle offsets?
6) not entirely sure what you are asking. uimaFIT definitely has the limit arg,
but not the skip/offset arg. Not sure if we need it, but also wouldn't object
having it. [~pkluegl] do you need something like this in Ruta?
7) didn't understand that. If I call reverse(), then I would expect that I
continue to move the cursor into the opposite direction afterwards. I guess
what you are saying is that reverse() changes the order of the list but not the
direction in which the cursor moves. Ok, makes sense... so we should then have
a preceeding verb.
8) single() is meant to throw an exception in the case where not exactly one
instance is available. UIMA-3234 suggest that two different exceptions should
be thrown depending on whether the instance is missing or whether there is more
than one instance. A get method with a positional argument does not cover these
conditions. single() is meant to be used with singleton FSes such as
DocumentMetaData (yes, I know that there is a dedicated getter for this in the
CAS, but it requires typecasting if a user has created a custom subclass of it
- also there may be additional singleton annotations in the CAS).

> Existing methods should be overloaded with an additional Class argument to
> specify the exact return type. This changes make down casting of returned
> objects unnecessary.
