Yeh :) One of the sweetest things about Forth is the
ability to stop at any point in the compilation process,
perform any computation you might want to, then resume

the power associated with this approach is one of those
things that makes Forth unique.

It's not unique to Forth.  Common lisp has macros, which are like immediate
words, and #., which is like [ ] in Forth.
