Great. But will it also be possible to add methods (or modify them)
to an existing class at runtime? You only have to look at a Smalltalk
image to see packages adding helper methods to Object and the like
(better to add a do nothing method to Object that find yourself doing
C<$thing.do_that if $thing.can('do_that')> all the time...)
