Fair enough. You're right in that it probably doesn't make any sense, or
at least I can't think of a reason why that would be needed. I didn't
need that feature either -- it was just an experiment. I was surprised,
however, when the usual "error: base aspect 'Base' is not abstract" did
not appear. And it seemed like it could work.
Anyway, thanks for the clarification.
Panu.
