That's too bad because it's a great feature to have.

The GObject method is pretty clever.  It allows you to abstract objects in an
XML format.  Then, based on those abstractions, you can introspect them for
their behaviour and link them into almost any language.

I wonder how difficult it would be to do something like that with PD's object
system?
