Yes, I really wish this was the reality. I would even be very happy with a new `data` keyword for this purpose. I'm teaching `dataclasses` in my CS1, and it's nice, but frustrating that A) students have to remember the import, and B) all my slides always have to be a bit longer thanks to the `@dataclass` line taking up space. This is a real problem for some of my longer examples...
welllll i'm not seriously proposing this but if you had a new extension, like .ty or .datapy or something, you could put whatever syntax you wanted in there and compile it down to .py...
Yes please keep stacking compilers on top of compilers. I loved dealing with Qt builds in CMake. Can't wait for Python's stable and consistent packaging tools to handle not-Python code that compiles down to Python code.
