Natural-language programming

Dammit, Wolfram is at it again, stealing my ideas. "Natural-language programming is closer than you think" - and he's got the key insight (no, not hexapodia this time): natural-language programming is a dialog. You'll still end up with code, but it will be code that is semantically wrapped in a set of concepts you've defined interactively with the machine. Lack of clarity will elicit questions.

Those last two sentences are my own plan. I didn't read all of Wolfram's article because I find it hard to read about people developing things I really want to do first.
