[racket-dev] getting a language level without starting drracket
For the #lang-based teaching languages, I hope to eventually move to
the sandbox for DrRacket. For the language-dialog based ones, I don't
plan to change them, just leaving them as legacy until people stop
using them.
So I'd suggest giving the sandbox a try and seeing if you can get the
stepper working in it as that'll be needed eventually anyways.

Historically, the division between graphical and non-graphical apps has meant that it's simpler for the stepper to make up a fake language level, rather than get a "real" one for testing. However, the world looks different now. How difficult would it be for a racket app to get a language-level% corresponding to a given module path, for use in testing? This would also bring the testing substantially closer to the implementation.
