Hi Benedikt, First, thank you for being the RM here.
Granted, I might have documented this new class better (and made the ctor private.) That said, while it is a new class for 2.6, we cannot RERO and change the class name later. I do believe that in this case, the narrow class name of "Factory" is better but I will not -1 the release. Maybe ByteOrderParser would be even better. If other operations are needed in the future, like some conversion gadgets, then a good class name should be created for that, and not dumped in a Util class. But, hey, that's just me, YMMV. I just like clear names that demonstrate intent.
