Future Ideas

  • What can I do with things that are protected or sealed
  • Analyze all the things
  • Custom awaitable (honestly don't think I care)
  • Analyze constructor args them for likely match
  • Debugger story
    • We do people want to step into
    • What objects will they inspect and how can it be helpful
  • Documentation
