William Slacum commented on ACCUMULO-3168:
------------------------------------------
Or just {{TreeMap}}, and then anyone whose API takes a {{Map}}, {{SortedMap}},
{{NavigableMap}}, {{MagellanMap}} or {{TreeMap}} can use it.
> WholeRowIterator.decode could return NavigableMap instead of SortedMap

>
> {{WRI.decode()}} returns a TreeMap declared as a SortedMap. We could give
> users access to useful methods on NavigableMap without limiting which
> implementation we can use out of the Java collections packages, if we decide
> to swap it out at a later date.
