That's why Object doesn't have anything but a name. However, should
there arise a need for something else, it will be very easy to add
stuff to Object, of course.
Sure, I was not suggesting making the "payload" so general that it would
suffice to implement all concrete objects. My only point was that "name"
need not equate to "string" (and that we already have a class which is
used to identify objects).
You could still keep the "name" parameter, and in the __new__
method construct a Symbol of that name as payload. Note that this way you
could put in Dummy as payload as well, and get anonymous objects for free
(as far as I can tell)!
Oh, wow, that sounds much more lightweight that Symbol! Great, thank
you!
Glad to be of help.
