C-FFI is coming along (slowly), but it is intended to bring
compatibility, not ease-of-use.  It is in fact a rather low-level
interface, though it's a bit easier to use than the low-level
interface we have now.  The high-level interface that uses C-FFI as
its low-level base, when it's complete, will still look a lot like
melange.
