While multiple macro systems are cool in a way in theory, in practice its a mess. That along would be worth breaking compat. in a major way, if only for sanity reasons, let alone for a good module system. ... I lament the loss of match, as I've become enamoured of explicit-renaming macros with pattern matching. Will this still be doable with matchable? Aaaanyways, I say got for it. Its going to be a bit painful keeping 3 and 4 synced feature-wise - I'm thinking mainly of Ivan's 'sane unit names' project here - until 3.x is ready to be pushed into early (or not so early depending on how long it all takes) retirement, but well worth it in the end.
