says who? - And for which reason?
And if this is so, why don't you fix it?
And if you don't want to fix it, why don't you tell others what seems to be
"broken" for you so that they can fix it?

These "new and shiny" things are what I would like to get rid of, since they
are just confusing people. Somebody invented the := operator for a similar
reason, but hardly anybody is using it ...

The basic idea of stdWrap is good, well known by many developers and it
works perfectly fine for any kind of object (including strings).
So why not improve and streamline the code that is executed behind the
scenes to get a better performance instead of introducing just another
concept?
I already tried to do something like that with the "fully blown stdWrap"
extension, but I introduced some conceptual bugs, maybe we can use it as a
testing field for improvements.

Anybody interested?
