A "protected" attribute is one that can be accessed by subclasses, but
not from the rest of the outside world - where do you have that in Perl
6? It's the first time I hear about that (unless you count 'trusts'
traits, which are specific to single classes, not groups of subclasses).

Afaict Perl 6 only has "private", with "public" emulated by accessors.

Cheers,
