I made a few changes to make it a bit more general-purpose. It now uses @publicmethod instead of the horrific public__ notation. However, the dispatcher class just checks if method.__class__.__name__ == 'publicmethod' and __public__ == True inside it.
This seems a bit odd but I'm not sure how to make it cleaner. Suggestions are welcome!
