Nice.

Doesn't this -however- create a sort of exception that might lead to
inconsistent syntax like we recently discussed with lights? Assuming the
turtle really is it's own sort of thing and not a primitive this won't fly;

(with-primitive turtle (get-transform))

But if we will have this -and I think we should-;

(with-light foo (do-stuff))

then it might make more sense to have this;

(with-turtle (get-transform))

Right now this makes very little difference, I think, but the amount of
types of thing that we have and the sort of stuff we can do to them will go
up, not down, in the future.

Not to downplay this very nice addition, but I thought we'd better talk
about this before changes break existing code, instead of after.

Yours,
Kas.
