> Right now the equals(Object) method for Value is
> {noformat}
>  @Override
>   public boolean equals(Object right_obj) {
>     if (right_obj instanceof byte[]) {
>       return compareTo((byte[]) right_obj) == 0;
>     }
>     if (right_obj instanceof Value) {
>       return compareTo(right_obj) == 0;
>     }
>     return false;
>   }
> {noformat}
> It's in a section that says it was copied from BytesWritable.
> If we're not using this optimization anywhere, I'd rather remove it since it is non-intuitive.
> If we are using it, I'd prefer we move it into something other than the general equals
