There is no generic built-in mechanism for this. For the special (and quite common) case when you want the container to “inherit” functionality from an element, some packages have macros that implement this, eg [`Lazy.@forward`](https://github.com/MikeInnes/Lazy.jl/blob/76dab7d30863e8375fc96b2444fdb2ead369bf4c/src/macros.jl#L248-L271).
