If anyone's interested on working on this it'd probably mean adding an 
implementation
of this onto OldInstance as well as adding it onto our new-style instances whose
classes are created by NewTypeMaker.  Adding the interface is probably pretty 
easy,
making it return useful things may be a little more difficult.

I'm a little surprised they didn't go with the already existing 
ICustomTypeDescriptor.
