*15) How would|Protocol|be implemented?
*"Implement metaclass functionality to detect whether a class is a 
protocol or not. Maybe add a class attribute such as __protocol__ = True 
if that's the case"

If you consider the __protocols__ attribute I mentioned in an earlier 
post, I would like to see __protocol__ renamed to __is_protocol__. I 
think that would make it more readable in the long run.

Best,
Sven
