I've been experimenting with the #pragma directives ...

I would advise against the use of #pragma interface and #pragma implementation. They are perhaps not quite obsolete, but they are little-used today.

Is there a good reason for us not to just declare them obsolete and remove them? I hate having to maintain little-used features that do nothing but duplicate functionality we already have a better mechanism for. It's confusing, ugly, and inefficient.

(And no, #pragma interface/implementation aren't the only thing
I"m thinking of. Like the Lord High Executioner, I've got a little list.)
