The support of an interface (AFAIK) simply adds the
properties specified in that interface to the list of
properties that the user can set without incurring
a "cannot find property type-check" error.  The effect of
setting a property depends on what the code which implements
the grob chooses to do with it.  This may be nothing, as in
this case.
