Hrm... so, it seems at some point there was a large retrofit to flip equals() to equalsTopo(). I assume that's because (if I recall right) equals() has some special meaning/uses in the Java world, and having it with a different meaning made some things (maps, I think?) not work.
GEOS never made that flip, not having the same problem. On the one hand, making the flip would potentially make future porting simpler (method names would line up). On the other hand, it could be an error-prone and labour intensive process... what's your feeling? P
