Did you consider adding a new
offapi/com/sun/star/embed/XEmbeddedObject2.idl instead of changing the
existing XEmbeddedObject one? That would avoid the need to change an
existing, published interface.

Or in case you think that it's not likely that any external UNO API user
would use that interface, then perhaps you should mark it as
non-published.
