Does it make sense to copy the definition of mult-aux.mkiv to mkii?
Everything other than \definenamespace should work in both mkii and
mkiv. That way, I can use it in modules that target both mkii and mkiv.

if you consider it useful ... keep in mind that it uses the new inheritance model of mkiv (less predefined hash entries at the cost of a bit more runtime but also more powerful) ... adding it would not mean that I'd adapt all old mkii code to it

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)
