I could probably just have

function Item: IBaseIntf

and return the inherited inteface as IBaseIntf, and on the receiving end 
(in the generic, and other code) typecast it back...
(not tested, but should work).

But then I can also just drop the constraints...
I am trying to ditch as little of the available type as possible.
