Interesting.  Maybe one of the problems here is that we're trying to  
solve different problems.  For me one of the most important aspects  
of interfaces is the documentation it gives to people wanting to  
implement alternatives or plugins.  Yes, there are other ways to do  
it, but interfaces seems to strike a good balance documentation-in- 
the-code and discoverability.
