Its definitely a good idea to produce a language/compiler which feels more comfortable to work with. My recent escapades in Verilog proves so, as a basic example I was using multiple [always @] blocks to perform seperate tasks but later found out that wire/reg types could only be modified in 1[always @]block. This led me to re-writing the entire thing to work around the compilers constraints.

Its only a small issue and I've learnt for the future but a more intelligent compiler would be able to compile my original by automatically combining what I'd written into a single block itself.

Its clear that your software here is going way above and beyond that but it does seem there's a lot of improvements that could and should be made merely as a matter of language/compiler evolution.
