What's wrong with good class design and inheriting? If we want homogenous 
behaviour andproperties, I'd think it is more appropriate to design a clas 
hierarchy reflecting this instead of fabricating dedicated routines, be it 
automatized or not.
The beauty of "mixin" multiple inheritage pretty much allows to do anything 
you like.
