Scala macros and separate compilation units

Is this limitation going to be overcome in the future? Or is there some way to get around this that I'm not aware of?

Right now I have a project where I would like to use macros, but they would need to depend on types specific to that project. Having a separate compilation unit for the macro would require me to introduce another one to hold the common types, which I'm not willing to do every time I write a macro.

Both Scala IDE and Scalor Maven Plugin support same-project macro compilation scopes.

Yes, we recognize that as a problem. Getting rid of this limitation is very high on our priority list.
