However, `Stencil` is limited to AST nodes, for better or worse. They make it somewhat easier to _generate_ source plainly, but they are fundamentaly an abstraction over the AST. I think that the only way we'll get beyond the AST is Syntax Trees. Still, nice to see this patch! I've been meaning to do the same for LambaCapture for a while and this will be a handy guide to what needs to be changed.
