-----------------------------------------
Hi [~dleangen]
Yeah, I went ahead and added the methods to the OSGi API immediately after our
discussion so when BJ looked it was already there.
I've now updated the codebase in Felix as well:

> Sometimes it is useful to treat a class as if it were a DTO, i.e. by ignoring
> methods, static fields etc.
> This can be done using the sourceAs(Class) method with the DTO.class as the
> parameter. This is a non-ambiguous way to signal to the Converter to treat
> any Object as if it were a DTO (at the risk of the caller).
