Gregory Chanan commented on HBASE-6657:
---------------------------------------
@Lars:
It's because areSerializedFieldsEqual is package-private, because it's a
test-only method, but needs to be in the Filter. Everything in an interface is
automatically public.
It seemed to me slightly better to do it that way than making the test method
public (not a big deal because it's a pure function) and keeping Filter as an
interface.

> After HBASE-6477, Filter is an abstract class, as is FilterBase. It probably
