Comment(by whiteknight):
I strongly suggest we deprecate it. The current implementation through
IMCC is inextricably linked to the internals of the Sub PMC, and changing
that situation would almost be a larger task than removing and replacing
IMCC completely.
It's worth noting that at the PBC level this should be very possible to
do. However, IMCC makes it almost impossible to do as-is. An alternate
assembler (or an alternate tool for generating PBC without PIR/IMCC)
should give us new possibilities in this area.
I suggest we deprecate this feature, but keep it on the roadmap so we can
keep it in mind when we work on new things.
