special field substitutions will be added if the makeProto boolean flag
is set to true, to reflect a prototype variant of the blockette
Construct and return a new CachedBlocketteDecorator seeding it with the offered Blockette
and indicating true if disk persistence caching is being used.
Pull back tables relating to the indicated blockette and mark them for

this version returns a Vector of PdccObjects, appropriate for cases where a blockette
references a repeat list within a repeat list of dictionary references, such as with
Blockette 60.
return an integer array of field numbers in the PdccObject that are to have
their values pieced together in order for a displayed label of the
PdccObject.
return a string representation of the length of the indicated field
number, which is either a single integer, or two integers separated by a
hyphen, which suggests a min and max length.
