If I understand Bug 11 correctly, then it appears to be a very
different problem than the one I report.
what you request for consideration must surely have been considered
before. if we figure out precisely how it is different and how it is
the same, perhaps we can apply that understanding.
because my personal coding has not yet advanced to using goops
regularly, my conjecture from reading related material is that keyword
handling in goops follows a non-blocking scheme reflecting its original
design model. i imagine when i do finally get to designing classes and
instantiating objects, i would view mixin techniques darkly if they were
(in return) so opaque.
perhaps i misunderstand the nature of keywords in goops and compare it
against other keyword disciplines, fruitlessly. how would i tell?
goops can be extended to do such error checking, in any case.
