This topic did indeed come up in an earlier user list conversation, and I asked for an RFE to be filed. If implemented it will break backwards compatibility for any existing app that "implements ViewController" but does not "extend AbstractViewController". So, it *definitely* needs to be discussed on the dev list before being implemented.
right! since my commits are rare to shale, I never commit things without discussion :)
I presume you have a bunch of unit tests to support it as well? :-)
ahm... well... ask me next day or so again on that ... :)
