I really don't see what good could come of it being available in general…<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>I think it is a nice feature to have. If you just have it in the VM nobody will see it unless the guy load all VM stuff and checks the code. <br>For example, for certain hacky scenario, I wanted to create proxies which have exactly the same identitiHash as the object they proxify. That primitive let me do that. I was lucky that I asked in the mailing list, otherwise I would have miss it.<br>
And it is not that we do not have dangerous methods in the image because we do. So... I would include it since I think it could be useful for someone doing hacky stuff, but as Stef says, I would put a really really clear comment.<br>
