POO Issues
</h1>
</center>

As the coding goes merrily along, issues crop up which will have to be 
dealt with at some point.  Here's a list of them, in mostly-random order.

<ul>

<li><strong>changing name</strong> -- MOO doesn't allow nonwizards to 
change the name property of users (including themselves).  There needs to 
be <i>some</i> form of control to ensure that players always have unique 
names.

<li><strong>renumbering objects</strong> -- MOO doesn't allow object numbers
to change or be reused, even when objects are recycled.  But we could
probably get away with it, since all object references are by true object
references (rather than by number).  It still remains an open question 
whether or not this would be desirable.

</ul>
