<p>At the moment, I really can’t tell you anything more, since I simply do ot understand what you want to achieve… You say, you want to decorate all <code>foo</code>, but then you say you do not know what you want to decorate, and then again you say thats a callback, so you have a contract… I’m confused about your plans…</p>
