Mark,
I like the vars-alias idea, it is essentially a varibale.
We could prefix meta to the variable name to make it accessible from other
bundles.
E.g.
bundle agent test
{
meta:
"email" string => "a@b.c";
}
can be accessed as $(test.meta_email) for example. Of course, it is
theoretically possible to have clashes with vars if you have a var called
meta_email also. There may be safer ways to do it. For practical purposes this
absolute correctness is probably not that important, though.
I would like to have a different promise-type, because I would like to have the
opportunity to add more attributes to it, that are not present in the vars:.
