Multiple dispatch by String alias

Possibly useful macro:

Composition and inheritance: the Julian way

I’ve found the @forward macro from Lazy.jl quite useful for this purpose: https://github.com/MikeInnes/Lazy.jl/blob/76dab7d30863e8375fc96b2444fdb2ead369bf4c/src/macros.jl#L248-L271 Essentially, you can define: struct Person name::String end name(p::Person) = person.name struct Citizen person::Person nationality::String end @forward Citizen.person name which will automatically make name(c::Citizen) = name(c.person)
