This retains explicitness, while also having a small barrier between classes. It also helps with my goal: I want my code to read as much like scripting as possible, whenever possible. (Tip of the hat to Dave Winer, who suggested this to me as a goal for app writers. Much of the Frontier kernel reads like scripting.)

Crowd Favorite
Crowd Favorite is my software and web development business.
We build web applications, design and develop custom WordPress themes and plugins, and build custom sites using WordPress as a CMS.
I also have a tumblog that aggregates my online content from other services (Twitter, Flickr, del.icio.us. etc.).

re: JavaScript and HTML: Forgiveness by Default
Yikes, I disagree with the author. If every rendering client forgave in exactly the same way, that would be one thing. In reality this loosey-goosey crap is what makes you spend 90% of your development time on platform parity. Strict compilers whip you because they love you!
(I think I remember reading that the next version of html will codify some of the loosey-goosey forgiveness wussiness; that sounds like a reasonable path to take.)
