DCompute target: Intel to Introduce New CPU-FPGA Hybrid Chip Supported by Acceleration Stack

https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/news/intel-to-introduce-new-cpu-fpga-hybrid-chip-supported-by-acceleration-stack/

is yet another motivation to keep up the great work put into 
DCompute at

!

Ever since I first tried programming in VHDL and realized that 
it, at that time, was far too unproductive for my taste, I've 
been waiting for the software and FPGA programming models to 
unite...

What kinds of simplifications (over OpenCL) can and will DCompute 
offer in this regard?
