First impressions, this is a really powerful concept. The implementation can be rough around the edges, but nothing a lisper or smalltalker isn't used to these days.
The value of live coding, to me, outweighs everything else.

You can redefine functions and other things at runtime, anything that calls that function after will now run the new code
