Has tangent being incorporated into Eager Exexution to provide features similar to the script mode of PyTorch 1.0 #85

I ask because I noticed that PyTorch 1.0 announced its script mode, which, according to the source code, extracts the AST of the forward pass defined as a Python function, like what tangent does.

The script mode generates a graph to be executed by the Caffe2 runtime, thus differs from tangent that generates Python code. Is it a reasonable idea to make tangent the script mode of Eager Execution?

Yes - AutoGraph is a project derived from Tangent that does exactly that!
