/**
* Subinterface of AOP Alliance MethodInterceptor that allows additional interfaces
* to be implemented by the interceptor, and available via a proxy using that
* interceptor. This is a fundamental AOP concept called introduction.
*
* Introductions are often mixins, enabling the building of composite
* objects that can achieve many of the goals of multiple inheritance in Java.
