Name aside, an interface is sort of very useful otherwise we're ending
up with code like this all over the time:
first_arg_ce = zend_get_class_entry(start);
if ((first_arg_ce != date_ce_date) && (first_arg_ce !=
date_ce_immutable)) {
And that's a real pain, so an interface for just the gettings (and other
methods not modifying/changing anything is probably a good idea. I'll
see if I can work on this over the Easter weekend.
