Edit-and-continue is best suited to debug/analyze/fix long running
applications and/or apps with a long start-up time.
The interpreter would kill all benefits of edit-and-continue.

Of course, for dudes who use to "massage a method until it works" (TM)
the interpreter would be okay, but for those usage patterns
I won't implement edit-and-continue ;-)
