That is what I do, but required me to know that a proc is inherited
from somewhere! I have both types, procs and instprocs (which are both
callable from the object) and I would like to be able to ask information
about them without knowing where they're from.

Yes, that what it appears to do, but as such it's limited. I would like
a uniform way of asking information about inherited procs and per-instance
procs. In fact I might even say that to separate those on this level is
confusing the object model.
