True, but from the comment in brackets I deduced that it was a reference
to when they (Interfaces) get implemented. Either way, then maybe a
comment needs to be added that Interfaces having no visibility
specifiers when the interface is declared, does NOT mean they they must
also be Public visible when implemented in a class.
I feel the wrong message is being sent in that documentation.
