Actually after rereading both threads (with "Re" and without "Re" in the
subject), it's quite clear to me that I should have not posted to it at
all  :)

My only other 2 cents would be - lets not modify the base class, but rather
create a task-convenient wrappers in forms of (inline) functions or
class-helpers. These wrappers would be stored in a project or a developer's
library, rather being added to the base RTL.

Dmitry
