That's actually an excellent point. ++. I read the traits paper and saw a lot of potential, so I decided to implement the idea. However, given that I've not found much real-world usage, there's not much prior art for me to go on, other than following the Smalltalk examples (and I don't know Smalltalk well). Hence this post seeking advice.

The package is currently at version 0.02, so it's pretty clear that it's alpha code, but I should add a strong caveats section to the docs -- namely that I've not used traits before in any real project and thus am less sure of the interface or even the best usage.

You wrote that it doesn't sound like I've used traits before. Did you get that impression because of some misunderstanding on my part? If so, I'd love to have it cleared up.
