The reason is that `ParseIR` needs to make calls to LLVM functions to create
the `llvm::Module`.

Just to followup, why does ParseIR require activation of a scope, or is it
possible that ParseIR returns a tuple of Target and Module, where activation is
done separately.
I am asking this mainly to see if we can get an explicit With style API

To address the second question: we shouldn't allow nesting of LLVM scopes. The
reason is that if the target doesn't specify any command line flags, the
assumption is that it will rely on LLVM's defaults. If we were to nest scopes,
and the outer scope did modify flags, then the inner scope (wit
Both `LoadIR` or `ParseIR` take an optional pre-existing `LLVMContext`, and

is newly constructed, and contains the given `LLVMContext` (or create a new one
if none was given). In the first call to `ParseIR`, the calle

We should define "final name".
In this context, it is
Thanks @kparzysz-quic . Sorry for the delayed reply since we are taking break
here.
Overall I like the direction we are going. Just to figure out the spectrum of
possible APIs
My main question is how are we going to interact with multiple ParseIR calls.
Some example would be helpful. For examp
