overriding NSObject initWithCoder/encodeWithCoder category?

Subject: overriding NSObject initWithCoder/encodeWithCoder category?
From: Greg Best <email@hidden>

Are there any reasons not to include these functions in a category on NSObject?:

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder*)decoder
{
  return [self init];
}

-(void)encodeWithCoder:(NSCoder*)coder
{
  return;
}

The compiler always warns that those functions may not be supported, but I know if I ever change my superclass I'll forget to update the coding routines...

One obvious reason, I guess, is that Apple may choose to implement these methods in the future, causing a conflict... Who wins a conflict like that? _______________________________________________
