  21. Philippe,
  22.  
  23. I think that the only reason for your suggestion is to have a unified
  24. system for registering classes at runtime, and you are wrapping this reason
  25. with the "Metaclass" label.
  26.  
  27. The features you want can be programmed by another langauge feature,
  28. templates.
  29. Such a template system *can* be built.
  30.  
  31. Etay.
