We could start with `major-mode' (which I'd constrain > to be modes for use in files-buffers) and `minor-mode'. The best approach remains to mirror/reflect the structure of the emacs/elisp manuals ITR esp. as this allows for reasonable and extensibl xrefs to source and documentation going forward. The 'delicious tags' approach is _not_ TRT here, nor is a strict class hiearchy 'multiple inhertiance' or otherwise. TRT is a thesaurus in the z39.50 sense. Zthes offers a nice set of docs, tagsets, schemas, attribute sets, etc. for such an implentation see (URL `http://zthes.z3950.org/z3950/zthes-z3950-1.0.html#2.5') The CQL, SRU, Soap, interfaces could afford mutiple paths to a controlled _and_ open 'tagset' in the cataloger/indexer sense as opposed to the "gee I better tag this library for custom" use that emacser's tend to employ. Why is it that programmers believe they make good classifiers? s_P
