Hey Miles,
This has crossed my mind everytime when I heard Ed talk about xcore, I discussed once with Ed to make the code
generation in xcore pluggable. But not sure what is possible at the moment.
So I find it quite interesting but it will be several months before I ever have time to take a serious look at it.
