public interface ObjectWrapper
extends java.lang.Cloneable

An interface that allows an object to be wrapped. No matter what we're wrapping, the wrapper will provide this interface.

This interface allows object wrappers to be handled as prototypes. A prototype for the class of object will be created once, and all implementations of that class will be wrapped using a clone of the wrapper.
