I'm more or less in agreement with Kevin here.

As I said at the outset of this conversation, I think it would be cool to make 
it possible to have code generators in multiple languages.

The trick is doing it in a way that is maintainable, given all the languages 
that we support and the fact there is likely to be continued evolution of the 
IDL and language bindings. If someone brings forward an elegant implementation, 
I would certainly support its inclusion. In a few months time, I might even 
have the time and ability to contribute to such an effort if someone else 
started it and had some solid design ideas.

Torsten,
If you really feel strongly about it, write it. If it isn't accepted
into mainline, that's how it goes, but I'm move convinced by code than
talk. Show me that the features you propose are useful, and won't
cause usability and performance problems, and you'll have my vote.

In the meantime, I feel like neither side is going to agree with the
other outright. It's open source. Scratch your own itch, and maybe
others will want the same thing. Until something exists, we're arguing
about imaginary code, and the implications of such.
