Doug has been on a quiet, long-term mission to accomplish this exact goal, building all the necessary bits and pieces. In fact, I suspect this is why he started using Julia in the first place. I can't possibly second the recognition of the amazing quality of Dahua and Tim's code enough. The fact that you are various pieces of very high quality numerical code written by them – or Steven Johnson – is one of the critical reasons Julia is amazing to use today.
