This "feature" eliminates any clean way of handling, or prohibiting, arrays of classes in situations where you want to do your own memory allocation (or reference count, or debug tracing, or whatever). -- Jeremy Grodberg "Show me a new widget that's bug-free, and I'll show jgro@lia.com you something that's been through several releases."
