Description

The TransactionVisibilityFilter cannot be ANDed together with other filters because:

• Tephra uses Tephra-specific delete column and delete family markers that other filters do not know how to interpret
• Some filters do not expect multiple versions of key values to be encountered.

Instead, having the TransactionVisibilityFilter as the one and only filter, but delegating to a contained filter if a cell passes the visibility filter will work. The existing implementation for this is not complete.
