[jbosscache-dev] Ease of extension of Cache and Node

[Brian Stansberry]

I've got a couple places where I've actually implemented the Cache 
interface in order add a bit of specialized behavior (one is in a test, 
one is to disable calls to stop/destroy by anyone but the AS 
CacheManager that created the cache). Simple stuff, just pass the real 
cache to the constructor and delegate to it.

Problem is the Cache API changes via addition of new methods, which 
breaks these things. Can the next release of JBC (not asking for it in 
3.1.0) include a class that does this?

I include Node in $subject since the same conceptual issue applies there 
as well.

Same request would apply to horizon as well.
