exporting the uniform types?

[gre]

I like this glsl() babel preprocessor idea and I wanted something similar, not only to work with glslify but also to have something that can statically extract out the uniform types (so I can do code optim without need to resolve them at runtime) as well as providing a better error feedback to user.

What do you think of this idea? Could glsl() not yield a string, but instead an object with { code, types }.

An other idea I had, a bit more advanced, is that having the type at compile time could help js type languages like flowtype or typescript.
