I meant that you would need to either redesign those classes that have
private variables you need access to, or arrange to not need access to
privates. Privates are just that -- private -- and are not intended to be
futzed with by any code outside of the class in which they are used. (It
would be nice, though, if mixins could be written to have access to them.)

If the privates are in a core qooxdoo class and you can justify a need to
have them available to subclasses, it would be a backward-compatible change
to make them available (probably via getters and setters). Yes, please show
what you need access to and explain why.

Cheers,
