> I create this issue to attach a patch (not sure our mailing list support this).
> I was looking at InputBuffer and I noticed how much it looks like a FilterInputStream class but it doesn't expose the InputStream "interface" (ok, it is not an interface, but an abstract class).
> Am I missing something or extending InputStreamFilter does not add complexity to the class while increasing its flexibility/reusability?
> I gave this a go by making BufferingInputStream an extension of FilterInputStream and by letting InputBuffer extending the "new" BufferingInputStream.
> This also gave me the opportunity to simplify some code aroud avoiding multiple wrapping of the InputBuffer.
> After this patch all of the tests still pass.
> I did not rename "InputBuffer" with this patch, but maybe it should include Buffered, InputStream and Filter words to better autodocumentation.
