That is a good clear syntax, which is also very easy to make into a
macro. Alas, but macros require the token filter patch, which requires
a custom build. In theory it would be possible to load token filters
dynamically, but it would be a mess, introducing dependencies that are
not guaranteed to be part of Lua.
