due to the absence of overloaded constructors in AS3, using the … (rest) as an function  
argument might be the only solution. The problem is:  
the …(rest) can only be of type Array as far as i know.

Is there any way to deal with an undetermined number of arguments which have a certain type others than “Array” ?
