It's ugly in some unusual cases, such as creating helper functions with nearly the same signature. I try to avoid that situation in my own code. It sometimes requires a significant design change, but I'm usually pleased with the results. If you don't have the inclination to reconsider the design, it could be nice to create a standard code pattern for these pass-through functions to make them more beautiful. >
