i am firmly of the belief that this is possible and the right direction to go. i primarily use labview, which is arguably the best general purpose visual programming language. there is a lot of power in the visual approach, and i think it could be improved and extended. as you say, many people are allergic to visual programming but often due to tunnel vision and short sighted reasons. but the visual paradigm is a step in the right direction in terms of seeing and interacting with your program rather than just writing it.
