French class actions

`USA Today`_ reports about `possible introduction of class action
lawsuits in France`_. That’s really interesting, because I was studying
a possibility of class-actions in the Czech law many years ago. The
conclusion we’ve came to with `Martin Mainser`_ was that class action is
not compatible with the legal regime in countries where every litigant
has a right to control destiny of the litigation. I wonder what will
French do with this problem—will they create some kind of mixed legal
regime, or they will make class-actions somehow compatible with the
European legal culture (I have no idea, how it could be done)?
Interesting question.
