I had something like macro in mind.
Say, we got something like:
(c-code
"lines"
"of"
"C code")
would expand to
#<subr anonymous-C-code>
utilising JIT-compiler we already use for native-comp.
Normally, this would happen at compile time, and we do not need to care
about JIT overheads. Otherwise, JIT-compilation can be used as we
already do.
Of course, this is just an idea. But it could be an extremely useful
feature when we want to beat certain performance bottlenecks and do not
want to change Emacs core every time we need such optimization.
Dynamic modules are not good idea, AFAIU. The communication between
modules and the Elisp machine is very limited.
