+     * <p>
      * When a set of filters are set, only items that match the filters are
      * included in the visible contents of the container. Still new items that
      * do not match filters can be added to the container. Multiple filters can
      * be added and the container remembers the state of the filters. When
      * multiple filters are added, all filters must match for an item to be
      * visible in the container.

      * When an {@link com.vaadin.data.Ordered} or

      * indices to the container.

+     * documented in the implementing class.

      * Adding items (if supported) to a filtered {@link com.vaadin.data.Ordered}
      * or {@link com.vaadin.data.Indexed} container should insert them
      * immediately after the indicated visible item. The unfiltered position of
      * items added at index 0, at index {@link com.vaadin.data.Container#size()}
      * or at an undefined position is up to the implementation.
