Language bridging, perhaps. You can build up a class definition at run
time, with all of its selectors registered to resolve to a single IMP
function. That's how CamelBones registers Perl classes with the ObjC
runtime, with messages sent to Perl methods (both class and instance)
routed through one IMP function.
