I just had a crazy thought: how about allow things to explicitly state static-constructor
dependencies? By default, it would work as it does now, all constructors
in all imported modules get run before any in this module but if an explicit
list is given, then only that list need be run first.
My first thought was to only do this at the module level with something like
this:
module foo.bar : foo.baz, foo.baz; // run first, even thought not imported
import foo.bar;
import foo.bing; // constructors need not be run first
It might be handy to allow finer grained specification of both the ends,
maybe putting the list per constructor and allowing the list to include classes
for instance.
