Subject: proposal: let kind_of take more arguments

It just hit me.. why not let kind_of? take more arguments?

irb(main):001:0> x = 3
=> 3
irb(main):002:0> x.kind_of?(String)
=> false
irb(main):003:0> x.kind_of?(String, Fixnum)
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments(2 for 1)
        from (irb):3:in `kind_of?'
        from (irb):3
irb(main):004:0>



For instance I have 

def push(choice)
  if choice.kind_of?(Zero) == false and choice.kind_of?(One) == false
    raise "got #{choice.class}"
  end
  @choices << choice
end


It could turn into

def push(choice)
  unless choice.kind_of?(Zero, One)
    raise "got #{choice.class}"
  end
  @choices << choice
end
