And what do you suggest for the case where an existing system has
been designed with tagged records to make it easy to add types, and
you find it necessary to add an operation? Must one then add a
typecase, pardon me, an if-elsif series of "if x in variant_1
then..."? Or is there a better way (short of modifying the original
system, of course)?
