One of the nice improvements is to ditch compilerClass, parserClass et al
in favour of newCompiler, newParser, which can then allow exotic
initialization etc.
Compilation cues provide a much nicer way of providing input context to the
compiler.
The BytecodeEncoder backend now insulates the compiler from bytecode
encoding and hence supports multiple bytecode sets (in use here at Cadence
and needing to be more generally released when time allows).

I think these are the big improvements over recent years.
