/**
 * Marker interface for a filter that has been Preconstructed. Users of such a
 * filter can assume that it is Streamable and that input() can be called
 * immediately in order to process new instances; furthermore, such a filter
 * should make an output instance available immediately after input() is called.
 * 
 * Implementers of a PreconstructedFilter should perform any initialization and
 * processing necessary when setInputFormat() is called. They should not assume
 * or rely on there being anything but a header supplied to setInputFormat().
 * Once setInputFormat() has been called, the filter is deemed to be
 * "preconstructed".
