Also I think exposing type-tag as ordinal (index inside one global master v-table) instead of pointless _hidden_ v-table pointer could be interesting in certain designs. Another idea is to try tackling multi-methods via some form of compressed 2-stage v-table. (my recent work on generalized tries in D sparked some ideas)
I like that classes are first class citizens in Objective-C and Ruby. Class methods instead of static methods. Easily extendable from outside the class. But I still like to have the "class" and "interface" keywords.
Would this solve the problem with const: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/3 -- /Jacob Carlborg
