/**
 * <code>DocumentFilter</code>, as the name implies, is a filter for the
 * <code>Document</code> mutation methods. When a <code>Document</code>
 * containing a <code>DocumentFilter</code> is modified (either through
 * <code>insert</code> or <code>remove</code>), it forwards the appropriate
 * method invocation to the <code>DocumentFilter</code>. The
 * default implementation allows the modification to
 * occur. Subclasses can filter the modifications by conditionally invoking
 * methods on the superclass, or invoking the necessary methods on
 * the passed in <code>FilterBypass</code>. Subclasses should NOT call back
 * into the Document for the modification
 * instead call into the superclass or the <code>FilterBypass</code>.
 * <p>
 * When <code>remove</code> or <code>insertString</code> is invoked
 * on the <code>DocumentFilter</code>, the <code>DocumentFilter</code>
 * may callback into the
 * <code>FilterBypass</code> multiple times, or for different regions, but
 * it should not callback into the <code>FilterBypass</code> after returning
 * from the <code>remove</code> or <code>insertString</code> method.
 * <p>
 * By default, text related document mutation methods such as
 * <code>insertString</code>, <code>replace</code> and <code>remove</code>
 * in <code>AbstractDocument</code> use <code>DocumentFilter</code> when
 * available, and <code>Element</code> related mutation methods such as
 * <code>create</code>, <code>insert</code> and <code>removeElement</code> in
 * <code>DefaultStyledDocument</code> do not use <code>DocumentFilter</code>.
 * If a method doesn't follow these defaults, this must be explicitly stated
 * in the method documentation.
 *
 * @see javax.swing.text.Document
 * @see javax.swing.text.AbstractDocument
 * @see javax.swing.text.DefaultStyledDocument
