Your API would be welcome, but it's of no use when we don't yet generate
the data your API relies on. And implementing that takes a sufficient
amount of free time. Don't forget that we work on FPC on our free time
without being paid for it (mostly at least). And then the extended RTTI
isn't the only thing that wants to be implemented. Just a short list of
those:

- dynamic packages (working on that)
- generic methods and functions (working on that)
- attributes (being worked at) and extended RTTI
- invoke (needs generic methods for TValue)
- anonymous functions (being worked at or not... Don't know the current
state)
- Vector Pascal support
- the new array initializers from XE7
- interface delegation to classes
- usable cppclass support

Regards,
Sven
