Re: class system with token filters

[Andreas Stenius <kaos@...>]

I agree with a common prefix, but would sugggest another prefix that 
doesn't make the new keyword two tokens.

It doesn't have to look pretty, since all token filtering is highly 
experimental, so a rationale of simply adding the prefix TF_ would do, 
in my opinion (e.g. TF_class).
