Hi Silvio,

My plan is the following: the python code compiles the master, the master 
compiles and runs block1. Here block1 is modified (we add a bunch of stuff 
before and after the code) before compiling. And the magic: block1 compiles 
block2, and runs it, etc.

The `-d:release` flags do many things. Generally it makes your code faster and 
less safe (no boundary checks, no assert, etc.)

If we need a compiler plugin, then we will write it for ourselves, then we will 
try to convince people here to merge it to Nim :)

If I remember correctly, we can override a type within a block. The type 
resolution does the same lookup technique as the variables.

Your shadow variable example fails if we have multiple implementation of `f` 
(of course, with different signatures). This is valid in Nim, so we should 
somehow support it.
