Why do you need a mixin to do this?  ISTM you might as well just insert these
directly in your code.  In any case, what you're suggesting doesn't seem to me
to be an explicit way of using _an_ inherited method as _an_ interface
implementation.  Moreover, how does it accommodate the case where FooImpl.foo
is final?
