Another reason why this won't work is that you only have one slot -- the same value is shared between every subclass of vcs-type-mixin. Adding a separate slot to each subclass is a pain.

Oh, right, my fault here. I remember elaborate macros, from my other attempts to use shared slots for this purpose, which solved exactly this problem of excess manual specification of "please make the sublattice rooted at this class a separate subdomain for this shared slot".
