NativeStructure��
�� subclass : #SDL_Point
�� layout : StructureLayout
�� slots: { #x &=> #int. #y &=> #int}
...
(I got example of Ronie definition from his paper��https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01353884/document).
So all offsets logic will go to one place StructureLayout and slots. And also we will not forced to use accessors anymore.

I like this idea.

But one question, would it be backwards compatible? (I mean, if I have current FFI invocations that use a structure in the traditional way, will I have to change all these functions if I try to migrate to this new idea?)
