Good.

No. I thought about that at first, but it's not really neccessary. There are 
three macros that can be used, depending on the situation.
GET_TYPE_NAME_ABSTRACT, GET_TYPE_NAME_VIRTUAL and the plain GET_TYPE_NAME. In 
your abstract base class, you'd use the first, in classes that will be 
subclassed, you'd use the second, and in top level classes the last.

Actually, GET_TYPE_NAME_VIRTUAL would suffice, but then you get ugly compiler 
warnings (virtual method in class with non-virtual destructor).

Well, we did something for strings there, not for other things. But it 
shouldn't be that hard.
