If there is agreement on the importance of closed, imho we shouldn't even need 
variants of final:
You could already build the required class hierarchies if the restriction that 
a subclass can't have higher visibility as its parent is lifted.

Imho this should be done anyways, and then you could simply define an internal 
baseclass with "public final" subclasses.
