Similar to what's happening in the tools/ynl/samples build system,
instead of statically generating this, can you have this be generated at
build time, and placed into a generated/ folder that doesn't get checked
into git? I don't see the purpose of having to manually keep this in
check?

(And if for some reason, you refuse to do that, it'd be very nice if the
 DO NOT EDIT header of the file also had the command that generated it,
 in case I need to regenerate it later and can't remember how it was
 done, because I didn't do it the first time, etc. Go's generated files
 usually follow this pattern.

 But anyway, I think I'd prefer, if it's possible, to just have this
 generated at compile time.)
