Oh, I completely agree that's the most sensible path.

Thought I could add some titbits while doing a search for Visibility:
public, Visibility: default and Visibility: published.
At least I tried...

Let me put it another way: when I have time, the inclination and
knowledge and if it is actually fairly easy to do, I'll propose a patch
for makeskel that changes
function result Visibility: default
into
function result Visibility: private, protected, public or published,
depending on scope of the parent function
and
argument Visibility: default
into
argument Visibility: private, protected, public or published, depending
on scope of the parent procedure/function

... unless the FPC gurus object to it

Now back to the grindstone...
