I believe the issue with the listing is that these weren't technically
CVS "adds", they were imports, so for that reason not listed.

I do believe I saw some funky code in places in my wanderings through
the source, but it will all improve in time.

I personally rarely extend classes of my own creation, and usually build
interfaces for shared functionality, so keep the door open for extension
if it is needed in the future.  A major issue is that you can extend
only one class (unlike c++), so it has to be done carefully.
