/**
 * A queue which forwards all its method calls to another queue. Subclasses
 * should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing
 * queue as desired per the
 * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorator_pattern">decorator
 * pattern</a>.
 *
 * <p>
 * <b>Warning:</b> The methods of {@code ForwardingQueue} forward
 * <b>indiscriminately</b> to the methods of the delegate. For example,
 * overriding {@link #add} alone <b>will not</b> change the behavior of
 * {@link #offer} which can lead to unexpected behavior. In this case, you
 * should override {@code offer} as well, either providing your own
 * implementation, or delegating to the provided {@code standardOffer} method.
 *
 * <p>
 * The {@code standard} methods are not guaranteed to be thread-safe, even when
 * all of the methods that they depend on are thread-safe.
