HSSF optimization suggestion

Hi,

as far as i know the current HSSF trunk contains equals() and hashcode()
methods for some HSSF classes like HSSFCellStyle, HSSFFont,
HSSFDataFormat, ...

My suggestion is to perform an optimization step before writing the
workbook by iterating over all those instances and eliminate redundant
ones. This enables the user to create for example a HSSFCellStyle for
each cell without regarding these stupid Excel limits. Furthermore i
dont have to care for cells sharing the same style if i want to edit the
cellstyle for a single cell only.

Would it be possible to integrate a Clean-Up step like this ?
