That sounds fantastic! Especially the traversal of closures. What kinds
of dark alchemy would I have to engage in to get hold of the necessary
inspector?

Would such an inspector be able to represent the structure of chaperoned
and impersonated values accurately?

Finally, what about the other direction? I notice there's no obvious
`vector->struct`. Is there a general way of moving from the description
of a structure to the structure itself?
