One reason to use the MicroKernel API is so we can implement a native

bit%203 - TBD - Microkernel portable to C:
I think it is valuable to have a language agnostic API as long as there is a real chance anyone will ever build a Microkernel or an implementation on top of the Microkernel with a language which does not interoperate well with Java. However, internally we should break down the functionality provided by that API into smaller units with well defined and separate functionality as Jukka started to draft it with the Tree interface.

I second your point: having a stringly typed MK interface in order to support programming languages such as C should not imply that an internal module has to be squeezed into this frame.
