Ok, thanks for the clarification.  I think the ability to supply an
arguments list via template parameters for functions would be a nice
addition.  It's not much work to add the _1, _2 wrappers Ralf
suggested above, but it is certainly cleaner and easier to do as much
as possible in the class builder.

And I do have a lot of default args in my code....  :)

Thanks again,
