In that case, I agree completely that that is the way to do it. 
Transparent change in usage from the current version of gensuitemodule, 
and generally more robust.

To make sure we have the same thing in mind, I have made a starting 
point for _builtin_Suite.py. I made it by assembling bits and pieces 
from Standard_Suite and Required_Suite, basically as I described before. 
It is at:
<http://www.artsci.wustl.edu/~mjbarber/_builtin_Suite.py>

The first _code = 'reqd' statement should probably be set to another 
value, but I'm not sure what to use. Possibly, it is unnecessary, since 
the class only exists to be subclassed?
