Good idea - done.

Good move.  Incidentally it might be useful for us to implement a really
trivial compiler that converts Forth-like syntax directly into op-codes.
In other words basically come up with a set of suitable 1-word names for
the contents of the "function" column, and map those names directly to
op-codes.

This would be useful for experimenting, and may also be a useful
intermediate code to generate from the full C compiler.

Well, it will be interesting to see what it is, anyway.  So he didn't say
anything about items 3-10 ??!!
