I'm not a big Interfaces expert, but as for as I know using 'as' like
that with Interfaces actually translates to a QueryInterface() call
internally, which is why it is allowed.  I vaguely remember as issue
between CORBA and COM interfaces and the 'as' call, because CORBA
interfaces do not have a QueryInterface() implementation. Well,
something like that... :-)
