I have no problem with that. As long as we provide an object that introspection
can use I have no problem. My point on this is that I would like to have all
the
parsing of strings centralized. I have seen quite a few places where we still
use
attributes as strings and then do all kinds of string manipulation making all
kinds
of unreliable assumptions that only consider UNIX and Windows.
We need to centralize this stuff to be able to do a better porting job.
