Bob raised this but no one's actually said the name and you didn't mention
it, so: If you haven't already, you might look into [TypeScript](
http://typescriptlang.org), which does these things at compile time via
type declarations (or with IDE support, even earlier). At least
until/unless this idea goes somewhere. Your team seem to want the kind of
constraints it puts on you.
