   Can _such_ a thing be called OO? This is a violation of the principles of   
   encapsulation and polymorphism, which are 2 of the 3 OO main things (and the   
   very, very good things nearly always).

   And here we have really major problem. No success was reached in developing   
   this, except the overbloated things like MS's COM.
