Let me clarify that I meant the kernel APIs should be as generic as  
possible, not the kernel implementations. If it is expedient/ 
appropriate to use the class model internally in a kernel  
implementation, then I think that's fine. (I actually think it's only  
fine as an intermediate step, but that's another conversation we  
don't have to have now.)
