I've yet to define generic methods on, say, continuations or threads.
I assume coops-primitive-objects will be much more useful for those.
The issue is not with coops-primitive-objects. Instead, as a program
progresses it is sometimes useful to redefine old functions and have
them accept more 'specialized' objects.

Maybe that's just me.
