The problem would arise in OOP forms where namespace structure is orthogonal to class structure. CLOS, for instance, is a oo-language in which slot inheritance is governed by rules for identifying names which are independant of the class inheritance structure. Names (symbols) are in packages and inheritance relations may be constructed among packages without regard to where the names appear. One example of where the problem could appear would be in a graphics system in which the behavior of a given instance is composed of that of a number of independent super-classes. Where, for whatever reason, one does not wish to accomplish something similar with delegation, and one cannot presume a common super-class, each of the pertinent superclasses is going to include a method which references the same property indepently declared. For example, the graphics context. Nb. in a situation analogous to the java slot visibility rules, the CLOS slot typing rules run afoul of the rdf notion of properties, ...
