So, if I understand you correctly: you would

1) extend the feature of Class at they are now defined in UML to include
additional features.
2) create three new subclasses of the newly extended Class called: passive
class, active class, and agent class.

Is that correct?  That is an interesting proposition, as well.   What
features would each of these three new subclasses have that would
differentiate themselves from each other?
Thanks.
