One thing: remember, there is a lot of talk about having
perl6 use Unicode internally, which means that things like
method names should be wchar_t * (or whatever).

Other than that, I really like this proposal. Combined with
a slightly more intelligent xsubpp (or more presupplied
typemaps) this could make XS much frendlier. (Maybe it
should be called ++XS in perl6?).
