There's a whole spectrum of code modifying techniques, ranging from
editor macros to actual language patches, via lpeg-based expanders
such as LuaMacro. Actually using the editor in this way is old hat
for those who have powerful editors. and it solves the tediousness of
_writing_ repetitive code correctly. The _reading_ of the resulting
code is not so bad, at least for this head.

E.g. lglob [1]. It even has a -gd ('global definitions') flag for
dumping out the needed locals for a module.
