Heheh, I just noticed I wrote:

So used to typing that, obviously should have been: language="CIL"

Anyway, yes I agree. It's a limitation that kinda sucks, but at the same
time I can see exactly where it stems from. Given the way they chose to do
design, it's just impossible today. I don't actually think there's anything
wrong with the way they chose to implement designing either and the obvious
workaround is to go with the virtual approach John Lam originally suggested.
Then this only sucks from the point of view that the base class and it's
methods is not declaritively abstract, so instead your developers need to be
told via documentation instead. Odds are this isn't that big a deal because
from the sound of it, it's a private architecture.
