This one slipped by I think...

I can see no reason why we can't make NestableDelegate have public methods
and constructor. (Of course supplying a test class would help the
process...)

Any objections from anyone else?

commons lang has only a package private constructor  and delegation methods
even though it is a public class.  As far as I can see, the only reason for
NestableDelegate to be public (rather than package private) is so that other
implementations of Nestable could make use of it.  However, the package
private constructor/methods makes such use impossible.
