I do not think that TIP 257, as-is now, should be voted for inclusion in
mainstream Tcl codebase, as neither the code nor the interface stability
is sufficient enough for professional-grade applications.

It could exist as an extension to Tcl for people that find it useful.
Technically, a separate branch outside the main Tcl distribution tree
should be sufficient for that purpose, IMO.

One should use the knowledge gathered by its develoment (AND by the 10+
years of XOTcl development) to create (better) hooks in core Tcl for
other (OO) extensions to have better interfacing capabilities,
as in the spirit of the Tcl language.
