@Participant(value="Prototype")
public interface StrictCopyable<T extends StrictCopyable<T>>
extends Copyable<T>

A strict copyable object can return a deep copy of it self any type implementing this interface can act as a prototype.

Though not required, it is prudent to supply a copy constructor for any type implementing the Copyable interface.

Implementation notes:
Unlike Copyable, this interface will return an instance of the copyable type itself.
