/**
 * This interface is a sub-interface of Transcription. It contains only the
 * methods that are used in the interlinearizer package. Interlinearizer's
 * classes will use TimeCodedTranscription to retrieve their information about
 * the annotation document. The intended implementation will delegate method
 * calls to a wrapped Transcription, but allows to override methods when
 * necessary, for example to add time code tiers without modifying the wrapped
 * document.
