Right now, the only issue I have is with autoload scripts in my vimrc,
but I see that it's being tracked as #13313 in GitHub. Other than that,
I must say that Vim 9 script has been rock solid for me (no more
crashes), and very pleasant to use!

I'm not sure I understand. Classes can be exported, and I'm prepending
the script name, so why doesn't this work in the command line?

:echo foo#C.member

where the script is ~/.vim/autoload/foo.vim, `C` is an exported class
defined in foo.vim, and `member` is a static variable of C. Maybe
because `C` is a type? For comparison, this works in a script:

import autoload 'foo.vim'
echo foo.C.member

Thanks,
Life.
