It would make sense to put .jl file-parsing code in a separate,
community-maintained module, because the rules for finding which file a
module corresponds to are not trivial, and can change over time (they
became case-sensitive in 0.5)
It's too bad that
macro module_parser(m)
m
end
@module_parser module X
a = 10
end
is a syntax error, because it would be cleaner for instrumentation, and for
augmenting Julia's syntax.
