Method chaining like o:m1():m2() is not related to currying because each
method returns the object so that further actions may be performed on it,
whereas with a curried application f()()() the function returns a
different more specific function.
It is good OO library design for a method that modifies an object in
place to return its self.
Agree!
Tony.
