rationale:
Encapsulation is an essential aspect of OO. Since the language
doesn't offer access modifiers to protect instance data, I wrote
this module, using a technique developed by Damian Conway, to fill
that gap.
This inheritable class enforces instance data encapsulation on
child classes and AUTOLOADed accessors. It provides inherited
methods: new(), to_string(), and equals() as well. Together, the
definition of the object interface is intended to promote object
interface consistency.
I chose the 'Class' namespace since this is essentially an abstract
class intended to be inherited by any object class.
