I suspect what you really are looking for is what's proposed in: AI-251/07 "Abstract interfaces to provide multiple inheritance". for Ada 200Y. This particular one seems to be under "The intention for the following AIs was approved but they require a rewrite", so there is hope ;). You can take a look for example here: http://www.ada-auth.org/ai-files/minutes/min-0306.html#AI251 George
