It sounds like all he needs is a VM, such as the JVM.
For example, the JVM gives us:
Java, Clojure, Jython, JRuby, etc.
All of these languages are compatible with each other and can easily extend each other. Especially with Clojure, it would be trivial to implement another DSL on top of these, but the platform has always been there.

IntelliJ is a Java IDE, but imagine for a moment that it was an "all JVM powered languages" IDE. It's a very interesting vision, and I for one am confident that JetBrains can produce something compelling. Their products are top notch.
