I am sorry, but I cannot find the code changes in the classes unit you propose. Can 
you give me a link in the archives or a date/time that you sent that mail? To be

the classes unit.

Then they must be designed/implemented better to support multiple extensions for a 
particular class. Sorry I used the wrong word, Matt.
