nsIASN1Object Interface

 This represents an ASN.1 object,
 where ASN.1 is "Abstract Syntax Notation number One".

 The additional state information carried in this interface
 makes it fit for being used as the data structure
 when working with visual reprenstation of ASN.1 objects
 in a human user interface, like in a tree widget
 where open/close state of nodes must be remembered.
