Reflexive type parameter constraints:  X<T> where T : X<T> ‒ any simpler alternatives?
interface ICloneable
{
    ICloneable Clone();
}

class Sheep : ICloneable
{
    ICloneable Clone() { … }
} //^^^^^^^^^^

Sheep dolly = new Sheep().Clone() as Sheep;
                                //^^^^^^^^

interface ICloneable<TImpl> where TImpl : ICloneable<TImpl>
{
    TImpl Clone();
}

class Sheep : ICloneable<Sheep>
{
    Sheep Clone() { … }
} //^^^^^

Sheep dolly = new Sheep().Clone();
