how to force <canvas> item loading

Whenever I try to define a class which inherits <line>, the canvas
item line, I get a "class not found" error unless I place the class
definition AFTER declaring an _instance_ of <canvas>.

Now I can understand that I can't have an instance of a canvas item
without a canvas, but why is the <line> class "invisible" until the
canvas instance has been declared. Is this a bug or a feature ?

Is there some way for me to "force" the <line> class to be visible ?

A load "Canvas" doesn't seem to work, I get a different strange error
message.

Any ideas ?

Brian
