Why is KinesisFirehoseToS3Props.existingBucketObj of type s3.Bucket and not s3.IBucket

[cfredhart]

I am trying to create a KinesisFirehose to an existing S3 bucket. I would like to be able to pass the existing bucket (not created via CDK or CloudFormation) to the KinesisFirehoseToS3 constructor in the KinesisFirehoseToS3Props. I am looking the bucket up using Bucket.fromBucketName which returns an IBucket rather than a Bucket. Since the existingBucketObj attribute of KinesisFirehoseToS3Props is of type Bucket, I cannot pass the IBucket reference to this construct.

It appears that the implementation of KinesisFirehoseToS3 does not make use of any features of the existingBucketObj property that are not in IBucket. Would it be possible to change the type of the existingBucketObj property to Ibucket?
