haven't tested, but the entire idea is just plain *wonderful*
this has caused me so many problems in the past! i'm interested
in solving this in my particular editor (my own project ruvi) 
but really i'd prefer to see a solution in the interpreter 
itself.

nice to see that the implementation only seems to add a static
cost to some fairly infrequent constructs and that its only in
the parse stage. pretty simple patch in all, doesn't add that
much complexity at all, i'd expected much more :), i imagine 
that the nice abstraction into seperate methods would mean 
that the corner cases even are fairly neat.

nice work! would love to see this patch merged!
