Just out of curiosity, can anyone say (without looking into image), what <primitive: 135> does? And now, same question, what <primitive: #primitiveMillisecondClock> does?
Never ending fight: meaningful names vs meaningless numbers
Since a primitive is typically a low-level implementation of a method (whose name, comment and maybe primitive failure code should state what it actually does), there's not really a guessing game. Granted, your suggestion would make it look a little nicer, so if you just want to implement it, it would probably be accepted easily. However, I don't see it as a most pressing problem...
