Actually, we've had requests for interchangeable APIs...

So, according to your strategy we either have each feature implemented 
with a divergent specific embedded or remote API, or each feature has 
its own feature-api with two separate feature-embedded and 
feature-remote implementations. Both plans sound terrible.

Alternatively, we could go with an infinispan-api package (which Paul 
has been advocating for a long time) which would contain the various 
interfaces.
