My last input question can be boiled down to a simple
question:

  Can one use an Ada.Tags.Tag  value (call it a meta-type)
  and dynamically use it to create a concrete object 
   where the new object'Tag = this_tag_value

The compilers definitely can do this (for the Input implementation)
but can us mortals do it?
