Hrm, so, I'm not at all keen to add a named constant syntax without at
least having an outline of what a future macro/function syntax would
look like. The latter is almost certain to permit the former as a
subcase, and I'd really rather not end up with two different syntaxes
for constants.
Unfortunately, much as I'd like to get all these extended features
into dtc, it's not my main job, so I don't have a lot of time to
ponder the possibilities.

Not for me, I'm afraid.
