C++ contains may useful and very essential features but this
doesn't means all of them should be very part of the interactive
language.
I think we should be reasonable defining the target for the
C++-like INTERACTIVE language. We must not demand ISO standard
compliant ( that's the task even a huge software company can not
achieve yet ) unless we want kill CINT as a reasonable compact and
useful tool.

I think the reasonable demand will be ONE way compatibilites.
As soon CINT provides posibility to load dynamically any
pre-compiled class definition as one can solve any
real problem. We should ask the code CINT understands been
"compilable" by the "native" compiler and convertable to the kind of
share/dynamic library. This way almost all problem could be solved.
