I think chaining is great for classes where 1) it makes sense and 2) the class is designed for it from the get-go. The Message class fits this, but I don't think OutputPage does.
Ya, something from the ground up definitely seems like the place where this is practical (ie: turbo vision). I guess this doesn't work so well when all the code is bootstrapped up and pieced together slowly over years, from hundreds of devs with their own coding styles/preferences/conventions/etc. Yay open source ;)
