But, that's not entirely useful unless we have APIs for executing code inside a given context, like the vm module I mentioned above. So my proposal would be implementing the {{vm}} API from node.js in Titanium (it's small). Where it goes in the namespaces is not important to me, be it {{Ti.App}} or {{Ti.VM}} or whatever.",
