Hi,

this looks good.  I hope you get the funds to work on it.

I hope that does not fire up warnings for the following case and variants

   struct A { /* ... */ };
   struct B { /* ... */ };
   struct C : A, B { /* ... */ };

  void f(B*);

  C c;
  f(&c);

as the call to f(), implies an implicit conversion from C to B, that
alters the value of "&c".
