This is a very good feature and it is so nice that it was done by a 
student with some directions by Florian and Jonas. I did not expect a 
positive result when you started.

I would ask to implement modern delphi language features like:
- anonymous methods
- for-in loop
- class constructors and destructors
- support for strict private and strict protected sections
- abstract and sealed classes
- class const, class var, class type, class property

Anyway, sooner or later delphi developers will use them more and more 
and there will be a need to port that code to fpc.
