My current goal in this regard is to keep additional infos that are needed by
ozone outside the source. Your idea of meta classes sounds really cool but I
guess that this proprietary source format would be another reason for people to
not try ozone because they would have to change their sources before they can
run them in ozone. Running a tool on the existing classes and changing a few
lines in an generated XML file seems to be much more simple. And you can use
your source code as it is. Ideas?
