    public interface Instantiatable<T>
    Add-on interface used to indicate things that may be "blueprint" objects which can not be used as is, but are used for creating usable per-process (serialization, deserialization) instances, using createInstance() method.

    Note that some implementations may choose to implement createInstance() by simply returning 'this': this is acceptable if instances are stateless.
