I must add, I also think the FPC Interfaces should NOT default to COM,
because that is just one platform (Windows) out of many that FPC
supports. Many developers that use Interfaces, simply don't need or want
the memory management that comes default. Thus defaulting FPC's
interfaces to a pure language feature (thus no extras like COM or memory
management - meaning using CORBA style as default) seems a lot more
logical to me.
