I happen to agree. But I think we should set some sort-of "deadline" on this. Ie, if it doesn't hold up beta 1, then we should have it done by beta 2. How does that sound for a compromise?
We should decide and implement whatever is decided on by beta2.

What's wrong with my interfaces? ;-D
Ugly names? :) I'm not very sure about bringing things like cast overloading into the language space but we can argue about that if/when we have the final list. If you say what you did is final we can start with that.
