* New method type: extension methods. Extension methods enable you to "add" methods to existing types without modifying the original type. Extension methods are a special kind of static method, but they are called as if they were instance methods on the extended type. Extension methods are identified by "Usage: Extension" and the type they extend is determined by their first argument contract. Thus such methods must have at lease one parameter. * New type-level keyword "Import" which can be either list or scalar that specifies type names which extensions methods should be imported into class context and thus become available to type members.
