If I've already defined the sub, with a name, presumably in a namespace, and marked it with :vtable, why do I have to play the games by getting a Class PMC and calling methods on it? I presume in this case I also have to *remove* it from the namespace if I don't want it to be there too, right? That does not seem like an improvement over the current approach where merely putting the :vtable attribute on a subroutine does the right thing. -- c
