Ah no, not trying to force typing on a weakly typed language, just 
saying that it would be nice if introspection was forced to be as 
"up-to-date" and complete as possible in the _language implementing the 
service_ , nothing more. So be all means have python-based services 
return v. But if there are (ever) too many services that just have 
incomplete or worse wrong introspection information a lot of potential 
for the uses of introspection could be lost. That's the only point I'm 
trying to make I think.
