Adding non-nullable means a lot of small changes here and there, so I 
don't believe it'll happen soon. Walter doesn't seem interested, and I 
find that very unfortunate.

Perhaps someone could backport that feature from Delight and propose a 
patch to Walter? Having something working and in testable state makes a 
feature much easier to discuss.
