Wordlists don't allow you to, e.g., define new words in the middle of
a colon definition.

At least in Forth as I use it.  But then there are those who say that
we don't need REQUIRE, because load screens work fine and require less
support from the Forth system.  So, if you have a system without
REQUIRE/REQUIRED (such as SwiftForth 3.4.8a), you could use such a
tool to create a file equivalent of a load screen.
