I didn't mean it quite the way it sounds, I should have tried harder to find
exactly the right words. It simply was too hard for a tool that primarily
does text-level analysis. Indeed, I can't imagine that they could have
reasonably implemented Ada visibility rules (short of basing their tools on
ASIS or some specific Ada compiler) -- it's just too hard of a project. I'm
sure doing that wasn't a priority for them, the priority would have been the
proof facilities.
