I'm in agreement with whoever suggested 'meta' or just about anything else
except 'traits'.
'meta', whilst perhaps an overloaded keyword, is still much more user-friendly.
Whenever
I see 'traits' I get the feeling I need a Ph.D. to understand what it's about.
For some reason,
I don't know why, 'meta' has an aire of karma about it.
"compiler"? That could open the door to other types of access to compiler
internals, AST, etc.
Yup. I think the 'magic namespace' approach is a simple, clean way to
incorporate reflection. It could be like Object and TypeInfo, implicitly
available in every module and tightly coupled to the compiler, but can
be viewed by the user as if it were just a module. It'd be particularly
interesting if some of the functions _were_ actually implemented in
library code, when possible.
