I think you are missing the point. Bee may indeed be misguided, but the 
feature is in Delphi[.Net] in general. It is used to implement 
Namespaces - something sadly lacking in the FPC dialect of Pascal. Maybe 
it is time *you* embraced modern programming techniques? I, for one, 
would rate Namespaces over templates and generics. I use them daily. 
Give me partial classes too (i.e. OO modular design.)
