> The Charset parameter was added to the public API for ACCUMULO-241. However, this intermingles internal serialization/comparison implementation, and the semantics of the public API.
> The Charset parameter effectively instructs Accumulo how to serialize the object. This can break the comparison with what is stored in the table and is an unnecessary breakage.
> In the public API, we should only accept Strings, and allow any valid java String. Internally, the serialization of these should consistently be UTF-8.
