I use limited types for almost all objects which need finalization.  I
think this makes perfect sense.  I also used limited types to emulate
interfaces in Ada 95, which made sense to me as well, but was broken
by the introduction of limited returns in Ada 2005.

(I've received close to zero training in Ada, so I often make unusual
design choices.)
