Rebol Enhancement Request <object>/Parent

What would be nice to add to Rebol is a 'parent value, much like the 'self
value. The 'parent value is set to the value of object used to 'make this
object. For example, with:
        o: make object! [f: func [] []]
        oo: make o []
    the result of:
        probe oo/parent
    would be something like:
        make object! [f: func [] []]
    The result of:
        probe oo/f
    would be:
        parent/f
    So enabling Rebol to have inheritance and still be able to 'mold
objects.
