Thanks for the pointers. I'll read the details of these languages for inspiration. To be clear, I'm not inventing anything here, I found out about implicits from scala.

  I believe the Scala creators invented implicits, as an alternative to type classes that fit more naturally with an OOP language. They were later shown to be equivalent to type classes.
