Yes, but it really seems like this is something that could and
should work..

My case is a single base class 'Base' and multiple subclasses
grouped under different interfaces.. e.g.
class Base {}
class A : Base, I0 {}
class B : Base, I0 {}
class C : Base, I1 {}
I need access to functionality provided in Base through the
interfaces I0, I1, ...
It really sucks having to re-implement this functionality in all
the subclasses, e.g. A, B, C.. Seems very unnecessary. I finally
implemented this using a mixin template, so the actual code for
it isn't that big, but still..
