such a "REBOL compiler" could be dramatically faster than the current
interpreter. If you, instead, express the speed critical parts with an ad
hoc designed compilable dialect, and then compile those, you get a dramatic
speed improvement with just a little effort.

I could imagine an assembler dialect something like:
stuff: 1234
ASM [
lda Stuff
add 1
...
]
That could be interesting in Rebol/Command, arbitrary binary code in a
script.
