I used twice a similar system (&<keyword>) that exists in ObjFPC. 
The context was a RTTI inspector and allowed to have enum members 
displayed without using a prefix or a translation table. Just to 
say, it's rarely useful but nice to have.


I would have preferred #<keyword> so much more that the "body" -> 
"do" change, which was a bad decision because focused on a 
detail. You mentioned "class"...
