Runtime-Extension of Classes View as Markdown

Hello out there!

This morning I asked myself whether it's possible to extend a class without
calling the child, but the initially extended class?
It can, in some circumstances, really be important.
I.e.: I build an CLI-shell interface for some back-end stuff I'd to do - and
it really is a pain in the ass to do all of the include-register-calls' for
each of a newly written extension. It could be so much easier, considered
having a possibility to do the include-[I'm usable] way ;)

I mean, for instance:

<?
interface XorePwnI {
public function XorePwn ( $_uu, $_xw );
/*
...
*/
}
class XorePwn implements XorePwnI {
public function XorePwn ( $_uu, $_xw ) {
return true;
}
}
class XorePwn_Intruder extends XorePwn {
public function CorePwn ( $_uu, $_xw ) {
return $this->XorePwn( $_uu, $_xw ) ; // obviously, that's not possible,
but a demo
}
}
?>

So - is there a way to dynamically extend a class (not the traditionally
"get-the-class,-clone-the-class-and-add-sugar"-way) ?

I'd really like to hear some cool explanations - but, well, please don't
tell me that's not possible, because it's not possible.. ;)

So, cheers guys,
