So you are saying you need this?
public interface IDataProvider<I,M>
extends IDetachable
{
java.util.Iterator<I> iterator(int first, int count);
IModel<M> model(I object);
int size();
}
then everbody has to create an iterator with 2 and 90+% of the cases it
would be
IDataProvider<Person,Person>
thats not so nice :(
