Though obviously the ugly other side to it is that it breaks the contract of set*. So we now have the situation where you don't want people to override set* because that doesn't give enough guarantees as is* might be overriden. Kind of the inverse world if you ask me. However, I agree that in general having is* non-final is very convenient. I do wonder though how often you would actually use it. I have one case where I use it myself, but that's kind of a hack, and something I can solve in other ways. Eelco
