Agree. The compiler needs to be told, rather than "has to know". One way 
of achieving this decoupling is as you say extending the compiler within 
Xaraya. I like that idea. Another would be feeding it say an XML 
configuration file. Another would be giving it instructions via its own 
database table (probably not so good). Any others?
