Indeed.  AFAIK the general approach for APIs that rely on CLOS-style OO
programming is that all the classes are kept "abstract" and what you see
is only generic functions.  IOW the API is exclusively defined by the
generic functions.

So you create your own type any which way you want and then provide
implementations of the API's methods.
