This is a bit complex because we want to expose extra functionality the wrapped class has. Perhaps there is some inheritancy trickery to do this nicer, but I don't know it, and this is the first thing we tried after a series of attempts that did build. This design is kind of like that of Rust's Writer, Reader, or Iter adapters, which impliment more traits based on what the inner type implements.
