Description
In the pdd03 design document there is the todo item (with context): =item 5 C<FLAT> (P only) If this bit is set on a PMC value, then the PMC must be an aggregate. The contents of the aggregate, rather than the aggregate itself, will be passed. If the C<NAMED> bit is also set, the aggregate will be used as a hash; its contents, as key/value pairs, will be passed as named parameters. The PMC must implement the full hash interface. {{ TODO: Limit the required interface. }} What is the required interface? How should it be limited? This, I suspect, needs to be discussed and decided upon, and then documented in the PDD.
