1. Builder vs Factory
* XFactory does what it does *exactly* with no logic
* XBuilder maintains state and can do the logic you wanted to
put in the
factory
2. DataStore and its Factories
* AbstractDataStore is focused on "simple" features
* AbstractDataStore "owns" types and thus *needs* a
SimpleTypeFactory in
order to create them
* FeatureSource "owns" data and thus needs a
SimpleFeatureFactory in
order to create data
3. Iterators and FeatureReaders/FeatureWriters
* FeatureReader and FeatureWriter are no longer a focus of
interaction
* Iterators "create" content, each pass through the data will
need *its
own* FeatureBuilder
4. Use of Builders
* Builders should only ever be a local variable.
