Subject: Re: Using an UnboundMethod instead of an alias to redefine a method

Ok, let me hijack this thread back to it's first subject. =P

Considering the example, let's assume we want to redefine the method  
to encapsulte the old behaviour in a new one. Couldn't this be done  
in the metaclass[1] and the metaclass calls the object's original  
definition?

[1] From why's article:
class Object
   def metaclass
     class << self; return self; end;
   end
end
