That would be a massive breaking change.
SDC do parse the module only when an identifier resolution reach
top level, and then populate the module's top level symbol table
without running any semantic analysis on any of its symbols.
Symbol are analyzed on demand when they are used. I think this
achieve something close enough to what Andrei was proposing and
is not breaking.
