John, just based on your update edit of 1/5/09, you might find AMOP an interesting read, and more on the line you're thinking of. It's pretty lisp-centric, but after all many of the good dynamic ideas started there. So if you can enjoy (or get past) that aspect, the authors do discuss the dynamic aspects needed and used to do something like this. It's pretty powerful stuff.
