1. Ada 2005 has interfaces.

2. The case I gave is fully static, without classes (of arrays or records).
This is not a dynamic interface it is just same thing as "type X is
private;" Private and limited private were interfaces already in Ada 83.

3. It was you arguing for objects which size were indeterminable and
components dynamically allocated. And now?

4. Why a built-in implementation of array of S'Class (what you seemed to be
arguing for) should be easier/more efficient/more compatible to Ada than an
implementation trough Ada.Container only publicly visible as an array?
