IMHO it would be better if REBOL would buy default protect system defined
words from overwriting. I like the idea of being able to redefine language
but it's too easy for beginners to accidently redefine something vital and
cause havoc.
Is there a way to know if some word is used in definition other words?
something like Ref-count? Although this would not help in case code changes
on future versions of REBOL but it could help on sorting out this kind of
problems?
