Javadoc
This class is a place to put all the code associated with
Special cases. If there is a corner case required to make
a particular format work that is above and beyond the generic
use, it belongs here, for example. Over time, the goal is to
try to minimize usage of this, but it is a useful overflow
class that allows us to still be as generic as possible
in the main codeflow path, and call attention to the special
cases here.
Note : For all methods introduced here, please document why
the special case is necessary, providing a jira number if
possible.
