static IGenericBuilder	GetGenericBuilderInstanceFor (Type type)
	Attempts to find and instantiate a generic builder for the type provided.
static Type	GetBuilderFor (Type type)
	Attempts to find a GenericBuilder type which is capable of building the provided type. Will cause generation of the builder if an existing type cannot be found.
static Type	TryFindExistingBuilderFor (Type type)
	Searches for an existing builder for the given type, first considering the same assembly as the provided type and then considering all assemblies within the AppDomain of the provided type.
static void	InvalidateBuilderTypeCache ()
	Resets the builder type cache, in case you really need that to happen.
static Type	FindOrGenerateDynamicBuilderFor (Type type)
	Attempts to find a dynamic builder (ie, generated GenericBuilder type) for the provided type. Will cause generation of a new GenericBuilder implementation if an existing one cannot be found.
