		 * Interceptors have the ability to intercept the request and/org response

		 * together multiple interceptors.

		 * Configured interceptors are functional in nature.  Wrapping a client in
		 * an interceptor will not affect the client, merely the data that flows in
		 * and out of that client.  A common configuration can be created once and
		 * shared; specialization can be created by further wrapping that client
		 * with custom interceptors.

		 * @param {Object} [config] configuration for the interceptor, properties will be specific to the interceptor implementation
