Compatibility:
- Swapped ObjectSelector and Selector in the inheritance hierarchy, to allow ObjectSelector to be deprecated. (#497)

silently crops softbounds to any hard bounds supplied ; previously soft bounds would be returned even if they were outside the hard bounds (#498) - Rename
class_
toitem_type
in List parameter, to avoid clashing semantics with ClassSelector and others with aclass_
slot.class_
is still accepted as a keyword but is stored initem_type
. (#456)
