I see what you mean, and I agree with you about that particular
section. ( also, it's especially noted in the title that is not a
specific Ruby idiom.)

I believe that this pattern may well be domain-specific to a certain
technique of graphics rendering, and that's probably not the best
place to put that piece of code.
(but it's a wiki, you know...)
  
wrt that specific section, I would also argue that I can barely see
the need for abstract classes like that in any Ruby code.

Thank you for the recommendation.
