i wouldn't say unsafe a long as there is no definition for 
"runtime-mixing", maybe the interface is fixed, maybe you can't 
introduce variables etc. in the outerscope

the difference between writing a textfile, run the compiler load the 
code isn't more unsafe then doing it inline - and the feature isn't
