This is a terrible idea. When my, Joe Modulewriter, released my library of AwesomeCoolClasses, i except my metaclass to be something particular and if it starts getting wonky and I do anything hackery on my end with the types, then the end-user's computer might 'splode! What I am trying to say, is its a terrible idea to go changing other peoples' classes at runtime without knowing the real affects of what is going on.
