DIP 50 - AST macros

[Timothee Cour]

People have shunned proposals to have @mixin functions because it wouldn't
be obvious at call site that some statement is executed under a mixin
(which could access all variables in scope etc).

The same will happen here; I think it should be clear at call site that a
macro is used.
How about:

macro!myAssert(1 + 2 == 4);
instead of myAssert(1 + 2 == 4);
