A number of topics which seemed to be good ideas
initially were abandoned during the development of Ada 2005 for various
reasons. Usually the reason was simply that a good solution could not
be produced in the time available and the trouble with a bad solution
is that it is hard to put it right later. This section briefly reconsiders
these topics which were discussed in the Rationale for Ada 2005
[15];
some have now been solved in Ada 2012; the others were considered unimportant.
