I don't think executing strings is important.
And Eu isn't the only language lacking it.
Using such fuction could be also security risk
Consider this example code
name = gets(0)
exec("parse(\"" & name & "\")")

what if somebody enters name "Martin") call(#EVIL_CODE) ?

I personally hate gotos from my calculator : the programs
are absolutely unreadable, but this has been discussed before.
