Re: [Xotcl] Around methods

The auxiliary methods of CLOS (:around, :before, :after) are rather
low-level primitives working on functions compared to XOTcl's
mixin classes and filters, operating on classes (method collections).
Can you give a convincing example, where CLOS style auxiliary
methods are an advantage?
