> The return type for the getInitParams() method in org.apache.pluto.container.om.portlet.Filter is List<? extends InitParam>.
> This presents an awkward scenario, one particularly present when creating unit tests for a FilterChain implementation and attempting to create mock Filter implementations.
> The requirement that getInitParams return a class that implements an interface _that extends_ InitParam. You cannot simply return a class that implements InitParam; you would need to define your own custom interface that extends InitParam, and implement your custom interface.
> If the InitParam interface satisfactorily defines what's needed, the getInitParams return should be a class that simply implements InitParam.
> Is it possible to modify the return value for getInitParams to simply?
>  List<InitParam> 
> This also applies to the getDescriptions and getDisplayNames method in the same class; both have return values of List<? extends someinterface>, it should simply be List<interface>.
