I've the same "define with a block" proposal over IRC in the past, and
skarnet is reluctant to implement it because (from what I've understood) he
doesn't want to encourage using the substitution mechanism as a
"macro"/shorthand system.
Maybe adding an option that exports $VAR to the environment as a netstring
would work. It'd finally bring some company to `dollarat` as the only
command with sort kind of output.
