Per-class tagging is what I intended.  There are three tag states: not tagged, 
tagged but unverified, and tagged and verified.  Tagging initially only means 
"objects of this class may implement this interface."  A check of the object 
itself later will determine if the object really does implement the 
interface.

I see what you mean.  I need to move the storage of the checks themselves to 
the object, absolutely correct.  I think what I was thinking when I did it 
this way was, since I get no "module_added" messages when methods are added 
to objects with <<, there was no sense in storing the information with the 
objects themselves.  But I see that there's an inconsistency that way.  I'll 
change that.

No, not necessarily.  Classes derived from other classes should inherit the 
interface.  The initial tag only means "may implement the interface" not 
"does implement it."  The final test is a comparison of the methods of the 
individual object methods and their arity.

Ah, I see...thanks for pointing me at this.  I was never really aware of klass 
before.  I just read about how it relates to Singleton's, and it gave a whole 
heap of ideas on how I could do this better.
