This sounds very cool. I can't gather from the mailing list thread
(which appears to be just you) whether this is implemented or just
suggested. Is it possible to actually use this or not?

Agreed -- it would be neat to have the syntax/tools available to use
it for whatever, and as a result of such a feature set, it could be
used for this.
