    Ah I see Josh-- is the purpose to test only system iterators, as opposed to 
generic tests to check user-defined iterators?  That makes more sense.  
    
    Some users may define iterators that expect a column family, whereas all 
the tests seek with `Collections.<ByteSequence> emptySet(), false`.  There may 
be many other places where a user does something "non-normal" intentionally.  
If we make this public API, we should state that user iterators do not 
necessarily need to pass all the IteratorTestCases, or at least that failing an 
IteratorTestCase does not imply a bug.

> Users often write iterators without fully understanding its limits and 
> lifetime. Accumulo should have an iterator fuzz-tester which will take user 
> data and run the iterator under extreme conditions.  For example, it should 
> re-create and re-seek the iterator with every key returned.  It could 
> automatically compare results of such a run with the naive run, which seeks 
> to the beginning and scans all the data.
