Perhaps a tiny first step would be to optimize function binding within
the same script.
This might be triggered by a keyword at the function definition.
It also might be done with notation at the call. This would clutter
the call but has the advantage in that it would create a compile error
if the function is not in the script. Maybe all calls in braces must
be resolved as built-in or script local.
Inline might be on this path.
If it wasn't for front scripts this could be a transparent
optimization. Or am I not understanding front scripts right?
