I'm quite sure that in time we will be able to replace the entire typing engine, possably by walking the AST via macros. Though I would like the most common options to be short. > docs/notes/recursive_polymorphism_and_type_inference is a start in > that direction.

I expect that the best we can hope for is that everything but the backend will be written in Perl6. -- Please excuse my spelling as I suffer from agraphia.
