[Laszlo-dev] arg to apply and remove methods of LzState

[P T Withington]

Are you saying there is a case where someone is making a delegate out  
of these methods?  I would say you should make a delegate to a  
'wrapper' method that handles the argument and then calls the real  
method.  That way you don't have to change the signature of the public  
API.

If you have a specific example, I could elaborate.
