I seem to have occasion to want to find a method based on the types of
its arguments rather than on instances of those types. This is
because I'm integrating C++ and STklos class heirarchies and I need to
look at a list of C++ virtual functions and find out for a given
object which of them are overridden in an STklos sub-type. It is
trivial to implement, since the first thing compute_applicable_methods
does is effectively (map type-of args). I just though I'd mention it
in hopes that find-method-by-type would show up in the next release. :)
