As I go through and hunt down bugs in the DataUtilities methods for 
manipulating FeatureType and Query information I am reminded of the 
purpose of this class - to capture common functionality that was 
"missing" from the library (or hard to implement which amounts to the 
same thing).

Now back in 2003 when I was too intimidated by all the crazy people on 
this list to effect much change I hid all this functionality in 
DataUtilities - usually assuming I was too dense to know the correct way 
to use the library.

Now I know better....

What do you guys think about moving some of this functionality to 
methods; on the objects we are manipulating. The query manipulation code 
could move to methods on DefaultQuery; DefaultQuery already has a 
constructor that accepts a Query (as far as I know only uDig would be 
silly enough to create its own query implementation).

What do you think?
