I haven't checked out the Zope stuff...that just popped into my head as a
slightly easier way to implement Heiko's suggestion.  You could use it as a
way to generate base classes that enforce the required-implementation
aspect of interfaces (maybe call it 'Abstract') and also inherit from other
sources to provide validation and such.
