That is spookily close to what I've done -- I even have the same
"SchemeActionListener" name.  Be advised that in the snapshot releases
Procedure1 has moved from kawa.lang into gnu.mapping

I do like the "object" syntax that Per proposed.  I'd also like a
similar way to define the methods of named external classes -- the
intent is to be able to write classes in scheme that the callers
wouldn't have to know were written in scheme.
