One of the basic premises of Singularity is that all objects can be derived from a few simpler ones. One doesn't need a large number of object types, all with their own interface. I've started a categorization of objects, which makes all objects a type of transformation function, a container, an inspector (to look into the internals of other objects), a number object (for completeness -- it might not be useful), and hardware objects which are just special interfaces to the hardware itself.
Is there anything this categorization doesn't cover? I've listed [[filter]]s and [[decorator]]s, which pre/postprocess the inputs and outputs to objects on the wiki. These acts as adverbs and adjectives in the language, where objects are the verbs and nouns.
Ultimately, I believe the object model will form a sort of epistemological "theory of everything"; that is, a system for all semantics to be expressed and acted upon for data.
