    So I'm not super sure, but I suspect it would be good to let BUILD file authors live in BUILD files is we can

    alright, i can see it. i wonder whether it is worth the complexity of abstractly being able to address things.

    The question isn't with addressing them, it's with resolving them within BUILD files

    Its just a tiny bit of code in BuildGraph that breaks this

    IOW the pointer is easy, dereferencing it in certain contexts is hard
