Sorry to be so pedantic, but I'm just trying to clarify that you keep
saying "reflection support," but reflection support is there.  What is
missing is a miniscule rarely used part of the reflect package, namely
support for reflect.MakeFunc, and, it's true, calling reflect.ValueOf,
then Method or MethodByName, then Interface.
