------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the reviews.
Oh. I think we have to make it IA.LimitedPrivate only and not private. Sorry my
bad. I think I wanted that annotation and copied a wrong one. :(
bq.You have to strike @InterfaceStability.Evolving from CellComparator if you
are making it public.
As said above it has to LimitedPrivate. My mistake.
bq.CellComparatorImpl seems like a mouth full though and perhaps the methods
should be elsewhere than in a CellComparatorImpl?
Can change the name. I wanted to but did not get a good name.
For the methods generally the matchingXXX and util methiods we wanted to add
here. And all the compareXXX we thought of adding in CellComparator. So I have
still keep that same. You want to change that too?
