As commonly used, you are correct.  However, one possibility is:

```ruby
  path = File.expand_path('implementation.rb', __dir__)
  code = File.read(path)
  
  refine(Foo){class_eval(code, path)}
  Implementation = Module.new{class_eval(code, path)}
```

This should be parsable and syntax-highlightable at least.  I'm less sure about debuggability and interaction with help generation tools, though.  Loss of code locality is definitely a downside.
