Henri Yandell commented on LANG-307:
------------------------------------

Closed LANG-433 in favour of this. A note from there from Paul asked for:

"Because clone() is part of Java's standard object methods, it should belong in 
ObjectUtils too, if not anymore than to delegate to a known CloneUtils method. 
No checked exceptions please and allow null-safety."

* ObjectUtils - not feeling a huge need. CloneUtils is quite clear if we chose 
to add it.
* No checked exceptions - middling on. I like the clear contract of checked 
exceptions, even if it all it means is you write slightly better logging code.
* Null-safety - sure.

Presumably by rewrite you mean being made typesafe via generics?

> CloneUtils - utility class to enable cloning via various different mechanisms
