Great idea! I also propose that if you do not write "please" often enough,
the compiler would error out, claiming the user being too rude. But if
it's used too often, the source can be rejected for being excessively
polite.

Also maybe it could TRY to a hint an info and warning about this EXCEPT if
the code is bogus anyway, before FINALLY erroring out. :-)
