Here are simple example, of what powers lies beneath, yet untamed.

now, try this:

| factory instance |
factory := CustomObjectFactory new superclass: Color.
instance := factory createInstance.
{ instance class. instance class class }

prints -> an Array(CustomObjectFactory(Color) CustomObjectFactory)

btw, there are something baad with Point class. Seems like there are
interference with compact classes in VM.

| factory instance |
factory := CustomObjectFactory new superclass: Point.
instance := factory createInstance.
instance class == factory

prints ->> false


Now lets go back to original question.

The metaclass of instance of CustomObjectFactory(Color) appears to be
a CustomObjectFactory..
but i can create as many instances of CustomObjectFactory class as i want..
Or should i add 'thisClass' ivar to CustomObjectFactory? ;)
