This seems like a case for code generation
I don't understand how this has anything to do with code generation.
I understand what composer-attribute-collector is doing, and see no
application for it (or something like it) here. Could you explain a
bit further?
In your example you show how to write code that does what you want,
but also that it is annoying to write by-hand. Thus, generating the
code instead of writing it by-hand might be better than a new language
feature; and there are many things that would benefit from that.

I understand your point is that preprocessors could solve this problem,
and I agree, preprocessors can solve a lot of problems. However, that
point seems entirely orthogonal to this discussion.
