I've often thought Final and Abstract type modifiers would be
useful, maybe now would be a good time to submit a proposal for
2.1.
We can already simulate Abstract, but an explicit attribute could
be preferable to throwing an error in a named template, or a
missing select on a required parameter (or a typed variable etc).
I am not sure to see exactly what you mean by Final and Abstract.
Could you please explain it a bit further, or show a sample of use
of what you have in mind?
The link from Mike explains it (and a lot more!):
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5312.
In summary: Final = cannot be overridden, Abstract = must be overridden.
I like pretty much all of what is proposed there...
