this is a good question :)
But so far there is nothing special for that
	you can define a method on the trait
	and invoke it via new when you create an object

Now this is not really cool because

	T1>>initialize

		foo := 3

	T2>>initialize
		bar := 4

	C = T1 + T2
		=> conflicts
		so we should use alias and this is not really what we want

	C>>initialize
		self T2initialize
		self T3initialize		
	

Note that stateful traits is more experimental than stateless one.
