Proposal: System Object Tree

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I have discovered that MOO does not do very well for multiple cores. I am
attempting to design a new core from scratch, but using a JHCore as a
development environment and @make-core-db to trim out the JHCore. Because of
how $foo works, however, this does not seem to be possible without ugly
MOOcode workarounds.
I would like to propose a System Object Tree which transparently allows
multiple cores to co-exist within a MOO. The basic idea is as follows. If
more details are needed on a particular aspect, ask on the list and I'll get
back to you. :)
$foo
	typeof(`v=verbdef.system.foo!ANY')==OBJ ? v | #0.foo
$foo()
	verbdef.system:foo()
crash
	verbdef.system:crashhandler()
	verbdef.system.system:crashhandler()
	etc (until x.system == x)
	if not already called, #0:crashhandler();
notify()
	if verbdef.system == verbdef, ensure that #0:bf_notify has been called before
notify()ing
	verbdef.system:bf_notify()
	(if this calls notify(), see this definition)
