That module shows exactly the problem I mentioned in my earlier message,
it processes the whole input file not only the text buffers that will be
actually typesetted, so If I've an \Idris macro it'll get replaced as
well, or I've to parse the file myself which isn't really an option.
OTP fits nicely in this, but it isn't as powerful as lua, and there seem
not to be much interest in maintaining it in the future.
we already have spellchecking (operates on node lists) so having some
kind of replacement mechanism is doable too (not now, later when i've
cleaned up some code)
otp's are gone from mkiv .. i simple don't enable the primitives any
more and the filter mechanisms is not loaded; of course that coule
become a module to be loaded at runtime if there is some real need for it
