Any client that needs to declare an extension (pretty common in OOP),
especially as "abstract" routines mostly are used with root types (and
interfaces). I suppose you could "program by error" and just let the
compiler complain if you don't give a body for something abstract, but it's
generally recommended to know what you're doing and not just try to make the
compiler happy.
