Subject: yaml and initialize_copy

I was reliving this post just now:  http://ruby-talk.org/96022

Apparently this hasn't come to fruition yet? Is something like
this going to happen?

The initialize_copy idea seems fine to me; or even an init_yaml
or the equivalent.

For now I plan to use this bit of crudeness:

   module YAML
     class << self
       alias_method :old_load, :load
     end
     def YAML.load(item)
       x = YAML.old_load(item)
       x.send(:initialize_copy,x)
       x
     end
   end


Cheers,
Hal
