OK, I've read and tried to digest this. It looks good. The one thing I'm still not getting, at a very concrete level, is precisely what changes are required to Python to make it work. The code is clear enough, but it's subtly not Python... For example, the comment "(I am assuming here that normal functions are implicitly overloadable, even if that means they change type at runtime to do so.)" - I don't understand what, if anything this implies about the semantics of the "def" statement (assuming that's the statement involved). If there's a pointer to a previous posting that would clarify, I'd appreciate it - although maybe it's another thing that would benefit from being restated in the light of the new context. Thanks, and apologies if I'm being dumb.
