As others have commented, Shady is an IR that happens to have a Clang front-end bolted on, that combination is what I call Vcc. I really don't expect people to start writing shaders in the IR directly, even though has a textual form!
It's very comparable to Rust-GPU, I actually know a really nice person who does key work on that (you know who you are!) and they're actually facing very similar challenges, and we get to exchange ideas regularly. I am confident it's in good hands.
