[Incrtcl-develop] Tcl's TIP 278

[Incrtcl-develop] [ incrtcl-Iwidgets Bugs-1578846 ] dynamic scrollbar behaviour incorrect/strange | Re: [Incrtcl-develop] Tcl's TIP 278
Tip 278 apparently breaks quite a bit of itcl's testsuite. The feature 
that causes some mayhem is the fact that fully qualified variable names 
bypass the special resolvers that itcl sets in place.

The fact is that fully qualified names (also commands and namespaces) 
should always mean what they actually say - ie, bypass any resolvers.

My questions to itcl devels:
(1) is the breakage I am seeing fundamental, or just a problem with the 
testsuite?
(2) if fundamental, what would it take to fix things? Would this cause a 
major breakage all over the place?

I have opened tip-278-branch at tcl cvs, where the tip is implemented. 
Currently with really minimal mods, newly possible optimisations are not 
yet in place.

Thanks, sorry for breaking the peace.

Miguel
