Can additional Javadocs be written for ColumnFamilySkippingIterator?
Would it make to write a few words about what the various iterators do
and what abilities they enable?

The iterators in the ....core.iterators.user package have descriptive javadocs. The ones in the ....core.iterators.system package are used internally by Accumulo and aren't expected to be used by users. These system iterators are generally configured through constructors instead of through an init method because the server is instantiating them directly, which means they can't be configured by users.
I could see it being useful to have javadocs to help out other developers, though.
