I think that would be a very low priority. What would be useful is the
hack to load debuginfo into kdb so that it can pretty-print arbitrary
structures. That alone would replace about 90% of the kdb modules I
think.

And yes, that code in current kdb is even more ugly than core kdb, so
it would need a major cleanup first.
