Hello, Been thinking a bit more about the background, and doing some tinkering.
I'm not sure about L18N, but I agree with the errors and exceptions. Transactions, auditing, and the ability to save and load objects has been mentioned, but how about locking ( so for example, only one customer object can exist in the system for a given customer ) It strikes me as being in a similar ball park to security ( who/what can call/instantiate what ) and could possibly be implemented by allowing a 'manager' object ( likley to be a 'singleton' ) for a given class, which would provide helper functions and govern wether a class can be instantiated or not.
