I agree, tolerable is the right word here, was not suggesting the
integration now makes them totally usable.

however with a simple consistent approach and style in your own modules
you can work around some of the remaining issues.  We knew dynamic
scoping sucked yet most of us have come up with a way to write our
modules so we don't get bit by those issues by adopting a few simple
rules and avoid some of the more problematic areas.

Applying the same approach to param classes did at least get me to a
place that I feel was better off than the older method - but yes, its a
shame we even have to come up with a style for working around problems
in something as key as class paramaterization.
