> Although the TimestampFilter supports using longs to set the start or end timestamp, it formats them as strings using SimpleDateFormat when storing or retrieving them in the IteratorSetting.
> This results in exceptions when the timestamps being used aren't able to be formatted as _yyyyMMddHHmmssz_. For example, try {{setEnd(253402300800001,true)}}
> Instead, {{setStart()}} and {{setEnd()}} could just as easily use {{String.valueOf(long i)}} to store the values, and {{init()}} could retrieve them using {{Long.valueOf(String s)}}.
