Further to the EMF new group "EObject == Javadoc; was EcoreUtil.copy and String attributes" thread.

EObject has a contract (better written as):

The framework also assumes that implementations will not specialize {@link #equals(Object)} (nor {@link #hashCode()}) in a way that invalidates the use of "<code>==</code>" rather than {@link #equals(Object)} for equality testing;

This contract is not satisfied by TupleFactory.TupleInstance or by two test classes.

[This is not a problem for the pivot code since the pivot values do not extend EObject.]
