> I believe that quasiquotation is the preferred approach

Oh yes yes yes. Quasiquotation makes writing syntax extensions almost easy.

It can't cover everything though. For those cases, dropping down into AstBuilder (or the raw AST) isn't completely terrible, but it's a big step down from quasiquoting.
