Really?  That's an interesting fact that I wasn't aware of.  Do you have a
program that demonstrates this or can you provide a demo?  I've never thought of
a reason to do this so I'm looking for a good "what for?".

The only thing that comes to mind is Judith's IDE... which I'm starting to look
at again.
