+        The returned UNO package handle ought to late-initialize itself,
+        thus the process of binding must not be an expensive operation, because
+        it is not abortable.
+
+        Calling the function several time with the same parameters must result
+        in returning the same object.
+
+        The file or folder at the location where url points to may not exist or
+        it was replaced. This can happen, for example, when a bundled extension
+        was removed by the setup and a user later starts OOo. Then the user data
+        may still contain all registration data of that extension, but the
+        actual extension files do not exist anymore. The registration data must
+        then be cleaned of all the remains of that extension. To do that one
+        creates an XPackage object on behalf of that extension and
+        calls XPackage::revokePackage(). The parameter
+        <code>removed</code> indicates this case. The returned object may not

+        must use previously saved data to successfully carry out the revocation
+        of this object (XPackage::revokePackage()).
+
+        The implementation must ensure that there is only one instance of
+        XPackage for the same <code>url</code> at any
+        time. Therefore calling bindPackage() again with the same
+        <code>url</code> but different <code>mediaType</code> (the exception is,
+        if previously an empty string was provided to cause the determination
+        of the media type) or <code>removed</code> parameters will cause an
+        exception. A com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException will be
+        thrown in case of a different <code>mediaType</code> parameter and a
+        InvalidRemovedParameterException is thrown if the
+        <code>removed</code> parameter is different.
+
+        The <code>identifier</code> parameter must be provided when
