Nimroutines.

One thing I'm constantly envying Go for is easy coroutines that can be 
scheduled across threads. I know the same thing was done for Jester but it 
would be good to make this the default, easy go-to way of having concurrency in 
Nim.

Overhaul pragrmas. I don't object to having a lot of pragmas, I appreciate 
Nim's adaptability and all those details need to be specified somewhere. But 
pragmas deserve a syntax that is easier on the eyes and the fingertips. 
Further, all uses for pragmas in the standard library should be evaluated to 
see if there are any patterns where certain use cases would be better served 
with their own syntax.

Easier Metaprogramming. I played with Metaprogramming in Lisp and its ` 
notation and while it's still metaprogramming, directly evaluating an object 
graph is much harder. It would be nice to expand on the area between current 
macros and current templates.

Consolidate and deprecate or flesh out experimental or rudimentary features. 
What does the effect system do exactly, and does it support me or will it fight 
me? No clue, so I just don't use it until someone in a forum sings its praises. 
Distinct types are great but it would be nice if there were a bit more magic in 
the adaptation process to use them more.

Try to push the envelope a bit more on type inference. Try again to achieve it 
for return types. Get some nice sugar for variant types and expand on the 
concept. Push the envelope a bit on the ease that allows beginner to get things 
done more quickly in Python even though Nim is static, that's the magic that 
brought me to Nim I would very much like to have more of it, please :)
