Yes, many projects have macros/functions to achieve exactly that.
This shows that a preferred form for editing the spec, even for
humans, is a declarative format.  In the above cases that format is
stored inside `CMakeLists.txt` files or loaded by them.  This is
consistent with my proposal for a generalized declarative spec
that is loaded by the procedural language for evaluation.
