> The javadoc for the no-arg constructor for {{Value}} states that it "Creates 
> a zero-size sequence." However, the implementation of get will error in this 
> case.
> {code}
> public byte[] get() {
>     if (this.value == null) {
>       throw new IllegalStateException("Uninitialized. Null constructor " + 
> "called w/o accompanying readFields invocation");
>     }
> {code}
> Either we need to change the javadoc to be more explicit or change the 
> behaviour of various accessors in the class. I would consider both solutions 
> to be breaking of the API contract since we are changing what clients can 
> expect from us.
