* {@link Stub} class, if it is and passed as a second parameter. This allows
* to use non-standard stubs without parameterless constructors.</li>
* <li>Any two classes, derived from the {@link ObjectImpl} (may be Stub's)
* can be narrowed one into another (a delegate is transferred). </li>

* later connected to an ORB, making the methods accessible remotely. The
* Remote being narrowed normally provides a local implementation, but you can
* also narrow remote Stub, creating "forwarding Tie".</li>
