I've written a new blog post about the almost-useful feature of Type
Intersection. I'd like to get some feedback on it, thanks.

All feedback welcome, constructive criticism appreciated, as well as a
discussion of the subject matter :-)

Thanks,
Daniel.

We had a discussion here about this (specifically the casting aspect) a
while back. May be of interest:

There has been a few discussions here. Which is one of the reasons I've
written about it. Do you know if Sun has any open requests to implement it?
