Whoa! This is really powerful.

I've not yet done anything to show it off (more than Samuele has done
anyway), but it looks like it fits really neatly with the block operator
- inspecting and dynamically twiddling the code therein.

Essentially it seems like a fairly easy operation to have an extra layer
of elaboration to expand python stuff into convertible stuff.

Bear with me, I'll have something soonish to talk about.

Samuele, I'm keen to interact on this, but I need to have a play by
myself a bit I think first (to thoroughly understand it).
