I have seen a bunch of different efforts going into this and related issues, notably Eric's DDL, Burton's DigC, Ben's Dflect, and of course Derek's Build.

Why not pool the effort into a unified tool which could incorporate all this functionality with a standard output format which would support runtime symbol resolution, reflection, and all the fancy things that are so convenient. :-D

On the other hand a toolchain approach is also feasible, but that also means that yall would need to collaborate.
