People who use streamline, like people who use CoffeeScript, don't look at the generated code (at least our engineers don't), they trust the preprocessor. And you have to balance the odds of hitting a compiler bug vs the odds of making a mistake by crafting the callbacks by hand: omitting a callback, calling a callback twice, etc. From my experience the compiler is much more reliable.
