For the most part, the initial implementation should only require the
methods which have been defined.  I've been deprecating obsolete
method names and adding ones which match the UML 2.x meta model names,
but only on a one-to-one replacement basis.  Things which are brand
new should, by definition, be unused and presumably therefor unneeded.

I'm not aware of any implementations of Model subsystems outside of
the project, so I basically consider it  OK to add things which break
implementations (ie the SPI side of the interface as opposed to the
API side).  The interface has been extended on a frequent basis for
years, so if it was causing anyone problems they would have hopefully
spoken up by now.
