LANGUAGE
  lock (var) { block }  (http://tinyurl.com/5rpzg)
  builtin functions
  varargs/overloaded functions (?)
  syntax for dereferencing C structures (http://tinyurl.com/4tpgh); 
     but what about iterative pointer following (linked list traversal?)
  syntax for embedded C (?); or at least C interface mechanism
  decide on numeric type size; probably need 64-bit
  need error builtin function to bump errorcount and abort session

TRANSLATOR
  lots of "XXX" markers
  deal with (warn/elide?) local variables only written or read

RUNTIME
  lifecycle control (http://tinyurl.com/6ub2a)
  better map/string memory management
  extending map key arity beyond 2
  user-level alternative implementation
  dtrace-flavoured utility functions
  interface with LTT, LKST, KGEM, perfmon, timer event sources

OPROFILE/timers
  kprobes-like event setting and callback API

PROVIDERS
  lkst("process_contextswitch")
  kernel.function("wait_for_godot").callees
  kernel.function("batman").calledfrom("commissioner")
  kernel.module("cpqarray.ko").jumptable("ida_fops")
  kernel.watch("datasymbol").write
  user("fche").inode("/bin/vi").function("refresh")
  user.inode("/lib/libc.so.6").function("malloc").return
  time.real.hz(500)
  time.virtual.jiffies(100)
  perfcounter("tlbmiss").count(4000)

KPROBES
  user-level probe points (via ptrace mechanism?)
  treatment of nested probe hits (prefer no permanent disablement; require
     flagging of occurrence)
  self-monitoring of performance overhead

SAMPLES
  all-inclusive top-style interactive program that subsumes
     top, lsof, netstat, ...
