Hmm - I suppose you know what you're doing ... It's not directly a 
blessed pattern I suspect but maybe I need to be educated. My gut tells 
me though this is not very robust. You force SeqFeatureI to infinitely 
mirror every change made to LocationI - and LocationI already isn't 
extremely lean. Hand-cuffing one interface to another -- I'm not sure 
that's the best thing to do.
