So

class of "foo"

in Leopard?

Yes, and that was exactly what I quoted:

(In addition, text, string, and Unicode text will all compare as equal. For example, class of "foo" is string is true, even though class of "foo" returns text.
.)

And that's why the common construct:

class of "foo" is in {string, Unicode text}

should return true, because it should also do coercion!

But the comparison, as quoted from the release note, does not work in the 'is in' case.
