I'm still left with an ambiguous feeling after reading it. * Would recommend not using words like "Typically". If an SKVI's `source` should be closed in the `close()` method, be explicit. This also makes me wonder, are these semantics `SHOULD` or `MUST`? What happens to an SKVI I have which doesn't implement close? * Exceptional cases are still not covered. Should implementations of `close()` eat exceptions or propagate them as RuntimeExceptions? --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
