In the special case of Vala even more difficult: e.g. understanding which piece of the code was most likely responsible for a warning or error of the C compiler.
However, the current concepts could be a like a prototype stage, to test what can be done in tihs kind of system. If it turns out that certain things need tighter integration that should still be an option.
