people who are keeping abreast of the mainstream change wouldn't use it.

It's easier to change the compiler to "keep abreast of mainstream change" than it is to keep changing your own code. Once it reaches IL, what matters is whether you're using the EF and Silverlight, not how you got there.

I'm curious: if this were cast as a new NET productivity tool to help keep up with the latest greatest rather than as a VFP compiler, might it receive a better reception?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
