Yeah, had a similar experience with Turbo Pascal: it was a really cool to mix Pascal and assembler methods in the same file. Tools (debugger) were kind of broken though. In my thesis I propose to model the different languages as first-class elements that can be imported like a library and that do not only affect the compiler but also all other developer tools like syntax highlighting, formatters, auto-completion, debuggers, data viewers, etc.
