What's the status of the sandbox component [clazz]? I believed this to
be a project including reflection utilities, but I might be mistaken.
Is this a different project than what you're suggesting in [reflect]?
As far as [io] is concerned, I'm hoping to submit a patch or two this

api. Since Jeremias is on vacation for 2 weeks or so, if any committers
would keep their ears to the ground and take a look at my patches I
would appreciate it.
