Personally, I do agree with having ary[0] as the "one true way". Doing ary.first will lead to ary.second, which will lead to ary.slippery_slope :). I mean some conveniences are good, while having too many is evil.

> Also, you're incorrect about help(). help(Foo.highlight) will provide the docstring for Foo.reverse if Foo.highlight = Foo.reverse.

That's what I was trying to say. When doing help(Foo.highlight) I want it to say something like "Event handler for highlighting text", not "Reverse pixel color for the given rectangle."
