Yes, looks indeed helpful, was not aware of these, thx!  
I was also looking further along

> The objects can be described by a common configuration file, does this help?

and found [Model configuration/parameterization file - General Usage - JuliaLang](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/model-configuration-parameterization-file/8982).  
The suggested flow with [Parameters.jl](https://github.com/mauro3/Parameters.jl) could do without objects.
