I think class-based is perfect and it has been working as expected for
every scenario I've thought of so far.  I didn't mention the hybrid
OMeta/Smalltalk case as I viewed that as being an issue for OMeta (or
whatever other language one was implementing) to deal with as that's no
different than the case of having to compile a Smalltalk method in an
otherwise OMeta class which OMeta also has to deal with.  I've pushed
out a new update which includes an updated OMeta2Extensions which
supports the new approach as well as better handling Smalltalk methods.
It's not done yet: the first time it sees a Smalltalk method in an OMeta
class it won't be formatted correctly but that's a bug to be fixed on my
end.
