I understand. I am not asking any change in the mkii code. Just want the macros for the inheritance code (without the definenamespace macro that uses lua) to be available in mkii so that I can use the new inheritance model with mkii in my modules. (I use it anyways, but with boilerplate macros borrowed from Wolfgang. All I want to do is reduce that boilerplate)
