Well, sometimes you still may want to have more levels of priority.
Regarding TurboJson, you're right though, the existing functionality
should suffice and your ideas look like reasonable solutions to me. I'll
probably try to change TurboJson to work along these lines you pointed
out and see if I can get it done without breaking backward
compatibility. TurboJson was developed on rule-dispatch originally
(which didn't have an "around" iirc), and later people probably only
added upon that without really thinking about how to do it properly.
Your explanations and hints are highly welcome. It takes some time to
get a feeling for how to adequately apply generic functions.
Btw, while TG1 heavily relied on generic functions, TG2 does not use
them any more and also recently ditched TurboJson. I guess the reason is
that rule-dispatch and peak-rules can cause installation troubles, and
people seem to have difficulties to wrap their head around generic
functions generally. Maybe you need to do explain and advertize more ;-)
