Well I guess this is to be expected from a CLOS refugee :-) But just for the record, this was not some accidental oversight, it was certainly discussed, and here was NO (as in ZERO) support for even considering this additional complexification. For those who don't know CLOS, if you are bored with the excessive simplicity of the Ada OO model, this should be a good antidote :-)
