## #45620 — Chris Trahey — 2009-09-20T01:25:31+00:00

Request for comments/thoughts:

A new access modifier for methods (members as well, I guess) to allow  
access only from certain classes/interfaces.
Call it whatever (group, trusted, party, etc), but perhaps something  
like this:

group function myMethod($arg) accessible MyInterface MyClass {}

Or

group(MyInterface MyClass) function myMethod() {}
