I understand the usability problems tags can cause but not sure I understand the benefit. Would it allow memory mapped registers such as Timer_1 and Timer_2 with some differences but whose shared components could be handled by a procedure accepting 'Class even though those shared components were memory mapped to different locations. If so I would love that. Even if it would not enable that. Have you considered making a suggestion here? "https://github.com/Ada-Rapporteur-Group/User-Community-Input/issues" -- Regards, Kc
