Yes, I been thinking of ways to expand __traits. When there's enough of 
__traits it's not much left during it into real AST macros. Just the 
part that passes the AST instead of the evaluated result of the 
arguments to a function.

BTW, is it complicated to return a more structured values, like a struct 
or a class, than just plain values like strings?
